Lupita and Oyelowo on to something

Lupita Nyong'o, Oscar winner and a celebrated Mexican-Kenyan actress is holding talks with British actor David Oyelowo to produce a film adaptation of Queen of Katwe. The film in which Lupita would act as a mother of a Ugandan girl who was discovered in the country's slum and later trained to be a champion in Chess, would feature British born Oyelowo as the discoverer. The story is a true life experience. I'm on lookout for updates on the talks and eventual release of this film.
Cheers!
