Dominique Fishback joins Donald Glover In Janine Nabers’ upcoming Amazon series

Variety reports that Dominique Fishback has been cast in the lead role of Donald Glover and Janine Nabers’ upcoming Amazon series.

Plot details for the show are being kept under wraps, though it has previously been reported that it will focus on a “Beyonce-like figure,” presumably played by Fishback. Glover had previously spoken to Variety about the project during the “Atlanta” premiere red carpet, which can be seen below. Fishback will produce in addition to starring.

Glover’s brother and fellow “Atlanta” writer Stephen is also working on the Amazon series, with Malia Obama working as a staff writer on the show. It is currently in production.

Fishback was last seen starring in the Apple series “The Last Days of Ptolemy Grey” alongside Samuel L. Jackson. Prior to that, she starred in the Oscar-winning film “Judas and the Black Messiah,” for which she earned a BAFTA nomination. She will next be seen in “Transformers: Rise of the Beasts.”
