It was in 2024 when a Chicago bakery owner made headlines after discovering that a customer who had been visiting her shop was actually the biological son she had placed for adoption.
The heart warming story, which went viral, is now being made into a movie with Oscar nominated actress Taraji P. Henson play the lead role.
“Give Me Some Sugah” follows Lenore Lindsey who owned the bakery her adopted visited for years who is stunned by an incredible discovery that inspires her to reclaim lost time, heal old wounds, and find purpose in life’s unexpected miracles.
Joining Henson is Russell Hornsby, Joey Bada$$ and Tasha Smith.
The movie is produced by Tyler Perry and DeVon Franklin and is the second film out of Perry and DeVon Franklin’s faith-based creative partnership with Netflix.
The first film from that partnership was the biblical love story “Ruth & Boaz.”
“Give Me Some Sugah” releases on Netflix Dec. 16.
