Meagan Good is one of those actresses who has beauty on her side and talent but has made terrible film choices (You Got Served) but who has recently been in well performing box office films like The Unborn which comes out in the UK on Friday.

She was first in Eve’s Bayou, one of the most accomplished films I have ever seen. I think Meagan’s cool. She has a cool, detached aura about her.

I hope The Unborn does well for her in the UK. It’s nice seeing black women doing different kinds of roles like horror and thriller films, because frankly, those films make money at the box office.

Box office clout = equals better roles = more dosh = respect.

Go Meagan. I’ll be interested to see how her career plays out. NB, Jurnee Smollett was also in Eve’s Bayou.
