How DolemiteIsMyName co-star Da'Vine Joy Randolph (DaVineJoy) went 'toe-to-toe' with Eddie Murphy
"The audition scene was really powerful," says Da’Vine Joy Randolph of reading for 'Dolemite Is My Name.'"It was truly like a love letter to a black woman." She was photographed Sept. 7 at Four Seasons Toronto.
"My dad was like, 'Whoa, whoa, whoa. Dolemite and Lady Reed?' " Randolph says. " 'Those are legends in our culture. You go in there and be a black woman in all of her richness.' " Armed with her father's advice — and after finding the seminal blaxploitation movieon Amazon's Brown Sugar channel — Randolph nailed her multiple auditions for director Craig Brewer's tale of the 1975 film's hilariously disastrous shoot.
