Tony Winners Audra MacDonald and Miles Frost Join Ava DuVernay’s New Film Inspired by Isabel Wilkerson’s Work

Renowned Tony award winners Audra MacDonald and Miles Frost have recently been announced as the latest additions to the cast of Academy Award nominee Ava DuVernay's upcoming film.

This project draws inspiration from the Pulitzer Prize-winning work of Isabel Wilkerson, titled “The Origins of Our Discontents.”

Sources have confirmed that Audra MacDonald is currently represented by WME, a prominent talent agency in the industry.

However, a recent incident has sparked controversy surrounding Audra MacDonald, as she faced criticism following her involvement in a script provided by WME during an interview.

The situation took an unexpected turn when the talent agency attempted to associate Megan's name with Audra MacDonald, leading to an unwarranted backlash directed at the talented actress.

Audra MacDonald found herself responding to the Proust questionnaire for Vanity Fair under the guidance of WME.

In the interview, she was prompted with a question that delved into individuals' perspectives on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, suggesting that supporting Meghan could be indicative of poor judgment.

The insinuation made in the interview stirred up a storm of opinions, with some questioning the authenticity of Audra's responses.

Subsequently, a spokesperson for Audra MacDonald took to Twitter to address the situation, highlighting concerns about the implications of her statements regarding Meghan Markle.

Speculations arose that Audra was compelled to defend herself following the mention of Meghan in the interview, leading to a divided reaction from the public.

Among the reactions, one fan expressed their disappointment by stating, “It's like spitting in the faces of all of Megan's victims.”
