Octavia Spencer joins Paula Patton, Derek Luke in Baggage Claim<\/strong>Posted by Wilson Morales<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Octavia Spencer<\/strong>, who won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar for The Help<\/strong>, will join the cast of Baggage Claim<\/strong>, the David E. Talbert<\/strong>-directed comedy for Fox Searchlight. Paula Patton stars as a flight attendant who is the oldest unmarried gal in her family and sets her sights on finding a groom before her sister gets hitched in 30 days. Derek Luke will also star.<\/p>\n

With her mother having just tied the knot for a record-breaking fourth time and her baby sister, Sheree, rushing to jump the broom, five-time maid of honor Montana is dangerously close to becoming not only the oldest, but the only woman in her entire family never to be married.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Having convinced herself that there\u2019s no way in heaven or hell she\u2019s showing up at her sister\u2019s Christmas Eve engagement party without a prospect of her own, Montana concocts her wildest and most romantically ridiculous plan yet: a thirty-day, thirty-thousand-mile trek in search of a husband.<\/p>\n

Will it be Damon Diesel, a young hip-hop producer whose motto is \u201cMaking the green scream and the dolla holla!\u201d? Or will she win over the Reverend Curtis P. Merewether, pastor and founder of Greater House of Deliverance, Tabernacle of Praise, Worship, and Miracles? Of course Langston Jefferson Battle III, superattorney turned city councilman, needs a wife now that his sights are set on the United States Congress. Or perhaps her lifelong mate is Quinton Jamison, a multimillionaire textile guru twenty years her senior. Only time \u2014 or the lack of it \u2014 will tell.<\/p>\n

Since her Oscar turn, Spencer has starred in Diablo Cody<\/strong>\u2019s untitled directing debut, and she just wrapped Snowpiercer<\/strong> with Chris Evans<\/strong>, and she just completed Fruitvale<\/strong>, which was produced by Forest Whitaker<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
