Oscar nominated actress Taraji P. Henson has already started production in an upcoming, New Orleans-based flick titled, "Hurricane Season". Also to star in the movie is Grammy winner Lil' Wayne, making his big screen debut, and rapper Bow Wow, who has had moderate box office success. Oscar nominated actor Forest Whitaker takes the male lead.

Based on a true story, “Season” tells the tale of Al Collins (Whitaker), a basketball coach at John Ehret High in Louisiana, who assembled a team of displaced high school students and taught them to channel their post-Katrina frustrations into a state championship-caliber season.
