Actor/Director Tyler Perry tells Hollyscoop.com that he is dying to work with singer Diana Ross, and has even penned a script for her return to the big screen.
“I have the perfect role for her,” Perry explains. “And I haven’t shot that movie yet because I’m waiting for her to say yes.”
Perry revealed, “It’s a jazz movie set in the 1940s, and [Ross] would play a jazz singer who runs a juke joint, and I just wish she would do it.”
Ross earned an Oscar nod for her debut role as Billie Holiday in the 1972 classic and hasn’t appeared on the big screen since 1999’s Double Platinum, opposite singer/actress Brandy.
