Production has started on Southside with You, the romantic comedy telling the story of Barack and Michelle Obama’s first date.
The first-look photo looks good to us.
Parker Sawyers plays a young Barack Obama, and Tika Sumpter plays a young Michelle as the two go on their date to the Art Institute of Chicago and then to a screening of Spike Lee’s “Do the Right Thing.” The date culminates in their first kiss as a couple outside an ice cream parlor.
Three years later they were married, and now, after 25 years together, they are parents to two teenage daughters, Malia and Sasha.
In the first look photos, Sumpter and Sawyers are shown together as a couple. Take a look and tell us what you think!
