Reboot of the Week
John Shaft is back! This reboot of Shaft (2000) will be scripted by Kenya Barris ("Black-ish") and will star Jessie T. Usher as Shaft’s son. The younger Shaft is a cyber expert with the FBI, and he's assigned to work a case with his estranged father (Samuel L. Jackson). Richard Roundtree will also return as the elder Shaft’s uncle, the original John Shaft from the 1971 movie directed by Gordon Parks. Can you dig it?
