Queen Latifah thinks her new film is a like a modern day ?Cinderella? story
The 40-year-old actress and singer thinks `Just Wright` - a romantic comedy directed by Sanaa Hamri - is a great story because it is like a toned down Disney story.
She told Moviehole: "It`s definitely a new age Cinderella. It`s not quite a Cinderella in the sense that Cinderella has these evil stepsisters and this mean-a*s stepmother who treat her like garbage.
"This is not so simple. Even the `villain` in this movie is not quite as villainess as you might want her to be. The `hero` is you will and the `villain` are tight like glue. And they`re sisters. And they relate to one another.
"They know one another like the back of each other`s hand. So, as much as they might be angry with one another, they tend not to go against each other in public. And that`s difficult."
Queen Latifah plays physical therapist Leslie Wright in the movie, who falls for a basketball player as she helps him recover from a career-threatening injury.
`Just Wright` is due for release in the US on May 14.
