La La Anthony joins Paula Patton in Baggage Claim<\/strong>Posted by Wilson Morales<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>La La Anthony<\/strong> is the latest addition to the David E. Talbert<\/strong>\u2018s romantic comedy, \u2018Baggage Claim,’<\/strong> which is being distributed by Fox Searchlight.<\/p>\n

She joins a cast that already includes Paula Patton, Derek Luke, Octavia Spencer, Taye Diggs, Morris Chestnut, Jill Scott, Trey Songz, Lauren London, Tia Mowry, Djimon Hounsou<\/strong>, and rapper J. Cole<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The film is based on Talbert\u2019s best-selling debut novel about a flight attendant with thirty days and thirty thousand miles to find a husband.<\/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

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

Anthony portrays Patton’s energetic co-worker and accomplice.<\/p>\n

Anthony is currently filming the third season of her show “La La’s Full Court Life<\/strong>,” which will premiere this winter on VH1. She also appeared in the feature “Think Like a Man<\/strong>” and guest-starred this summer on the CBS crime drama “NYC 22<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n

Anthony is repped by APA, Jen Merlino and Stephanie Simon at Untitled, and Sean Marks at Myman, Greenspan.<\/p>\n
