Rapper-actress Eve (Eve, Barbershop) will star in and executive-produce a Showtime movie about a real-life HIV-positive lesbian talk-show producer, reports Variety. Getting Unstuck, based on the memoir of the same name, tells the story of Conscious (nee Merle Soden), a woman who battled an abusive childhood, drugs, homelessness, and HIV to become a producer of Queen Latifah's short-lived talk show. The film will reunite her with gay Showtime president Robert Greenblatt, whose Greenblatt-Janollari production company executive-produces Eve's UPN sitcom. Greenblatt told Variety that the film will "show [Eve] off in a way no one's ever seen before."
