Don Cheadle, Mos Def and Angela Bassett Set for Danny Glover's L'Ouverture Film

Daily News reports that Don Cheadle, Mos Def and Angela Bassett are among the A-listers Danny Glover has attached to his upcoming feature on Haitian revolutionary Toussaint L'Ouverture.

"I've got a powerful cast," says Glover, who will direct the labor of love he's been trying to get done for some 20 years. "We also have Wesley Snipes, Roger Guenvere Smith, plus a number of other African and Haitian actors."

Glover, who's currently shooting the big-screen Dreamgirls opposite Beyonce Knowles, Jamie Foxx and Eddie Murphy, also has The Adventures of Brer Rabbit DVD just hitting stores from Universal Studios Home Entertainment.

    You can see a clip of Toussaint's last moments in prison from the new short film "The Last Days of Toussaint L'Ouverture" at http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2468184/ This short film is the basis for a new feature (not with Danny Glover) that is in development.
