‘Preacher’s Kid’ Starring LeToya, Trey Songz & Tank

The ageless parable of the ‘Prodigal Son’ is cast in a 21st century urban setting in the new Warner Bros. Premiere/Gener8Xion Entertainment feature, the Preacher’s Kid. The Stan Foster written and directed project opens on January 29, 2010 in select theaters across the country.

Preacher’s Kid stars platinum-selling Capitol Records artist, LeToya Luckett, as “Angie King,” a 20-something daughter of a minister who, “longing to experience more of life – and with dreams of fame and fortune in her mind – she strikes out on her own for the very first time, joining a traveling gospel show. She soon discovers, though, that life on the road is tough; but even more, she fears going home with nothing to show for herself, or worse, to a father who might no longer love her.”

This movie, filmed in Atlanta, GA and New York City – including key performance segments shot in the world famous Apollo Theater in Harlem – marks the film debut for Luckett, a co-founder of R&B super group, “Destiny’s Child.” Luckett has rapidly become a solo star with her recent #1-selling album, Lady Love, which generated AOL Music’s #6 song for all of 2009, “Regret.”
