Think Like a Man interview with Gabrielle Union, Meagan Good, and Regina Hall

[BlackTree TV - Los Angeles] We sat down with the cast of Think Like A Man this past weekend,
A conversation with Kevin Hart set the stage for Gabrielle Union to join the cast. Says Union, "When I was shooting "Little In Common" with Kevin Hart he said 'Did you read Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man?' I was like 'No.' So Kevin passed [the script] off to me. I read it, I loved it and I was like how can we make this work?"
Packer was interested. "Gabrielle was somebody that I wasn't close to prior to this project," says Packer. "The project came up, her agent called and said 'Gabrielle Union would like to meet with you about it." Union's quick wit and sharp sense of humor won him over, so she was cast as Kristen, forever concerned about the slacker ways of her live-in boyfriend Jeremy.
"She's nearing that age and place in life where she wants to take things to the next level and really secure a solid commitment from Jeremy," says Union, who also reveals that Harvey's book was more than just a means to a movie role. "It has definitely helped in my dating life!"
When assembling an ensemble cast, Packer knew he had to bring out the most qualified and talented actresses in Hollywood. That meant ensuring Regina Hall was on board. "I just hit her direct and said, 'Reg, I got this project. Check it out. I want you to see it," says Packer. Hall, who plays Terrence J's love interest, Candace, loved the script.
"When I first read the script I thought it was hilarious," says Hall. "And being familiar with the book, listening to Steve Harvey's advice to women and sometimes applying it to my own life and then seeing how they've actually made it into a story that crossed all these different kinds of relationships and different issues in relationships--I thought it was really funny and touching at the same time. It had a lot of heart."
Harvey lays out the problems Hall's character faces: "This woman is faced with this guy that she's crazy about, but she's got to deal with the fact that wow, this guy loves his mother more than he loves life itself, so where do I fit in here? There are a lot of women who've had to grapple with that."
To round out the script's lead female roles, the filmmakers set their sights on Meagan Good. Explains Packer, "Megan and I worked together on Stomp The Yard. We kept in touch. We tried to work together a couple times, but her schedule or my schedule--it didn't really line up perfectly, but as soon as I knew that she had a window I could hit with this. I think she is one of the most talented and underrated young actresses in the game today."
Meagan was definitely interested and was cast as Mya, a beautiful single woman who employs one of Harvey's tactics -- the ninety-day rule -- to weed out players. "I read the script a couple months before and I fell in love with Mya," says Good. "She's the kind of girl who's looking for the right relationship and wants to be in love and wants the positive thing, but she always gives it up a little too soon. So this journey for her is about recognizing her self-worth and making sure that the person that she does choose recognizes her worth as well."

Even though she doesn't look good in this interview. Did you know she was the chick from 50 Cent's 21 questions. That's when I first was blown away by her!

[@adfvssl011]

damn i hope i age as gracefully (aka super slow) as they do lol

[@zaiWHOOkid]

Soo.. Who else is catching this shade between Gabby and Regina?

[@emergencyexit16]

Well, many puerto ricans are black or mixed and her mom is obviously some type of mixed race black if you've seen her. So meagan good is mostly black...all of these women are black with mixed heritage like most afro americans.

[@VividlyKIYA]

Beautiful BLACK women. (Enough said)

[@AfrikanGod1]

(their)

[@patrickquinn5071]

Gabrielle union 😍😍😍😍😍🥰😘🤤 love Gabi sexiest colour of all time🤤

[@SoBeFamous]

[@jbells16]

Love all of these ladies, especially Gabby and Regina! YES!!!!! GORGEOUS! And I love how they're both sexy, but don't have to show too much or do too much to get that message across.

[@uuu09]

awww i feel bad for meagan like she's left out in this interview or somethin

[@ColdHeartedHonesty]

Gabrielle is fucking beautiful...that smile!!

[@Rogue-Blue]

dammm u d wade damm uuuuuuuuuuu

[@xmaiadancer]

@wyecee BTW, how does skin tone determine someone's beauty? just cause you lighter skinned doesn't mean you're automatically good looking, just cause you're darkerskinned doesn't mea you're automatically bad looking. why are you even seperatin these womans skin tone of brown? at the end of the day they're ALL BEAUTIFUL BLACK WOMAN.

[@evilzlatan]

She's going to be 40 this year! and Regina's gonna be like 42 I'm in shock they're both basically a decade older than Megan and they don't look it one bit :o but black don't crack :D

[@sorcereous]

Meagan good..... DAYYUM

[@Grasonwombat]

I like Regina. Shes funny.

[@blacktreemedia]

@foreheadboy It's a movie not a movement. Is it possible that black people can watch a movie to be entertained without having to save the black race at the same time? Did you watch Friday and accuse Ice Cube of not progressing the black community? What progress are you making for the black community,? I'm just sick and tired of straight up "haters".

[@philipsal123]

I love Meagan she Classy and she hot af !

[@ShamaraMurray]

They could have takk

[@kawilka]

i like megan she i so hot!! in every of here movie specialy this one

[@dominicdotson8921]

she don't bro

[@foreheadboy]

You see,...spectators might say ' oh well it's just a movie ' but the reality is still in present. And there are issues between blackmen and black women generally speaking so what is it this movie will contribute to us other then laughs and jokes? Nothing but a lot of money to steve and the producers and actors but the black community still hasn't made any progress how a man should make a woman and the woman a man.

[@robinlue2008]

in a room with those three i dont think id be able to speak!!!

[@AshCipriano]

Megan Good is mad Beautiful

[@victoriajohnson9060]

black is beutiful!!!!!!

[@foreheadboy]

A man will never think like a woman i can tell you that. And if the producers would make a movie like that it won't sell either.In other words....the producers know how to sell a story and all yall black women literally buying it.

[@shoulderollHD]

Regina is fine!

[@stayswagedout]

Gabrielle union is just so beautiful to me. She still dating Dwayne wade?

[@POWERMINDS747]

What? Naw they all are dark skinned women! Light skin is like a Keyshia Cole or Faith Evans, Alicia Keys or Tiny (TI's wife)!

[@AshlyCT]

What kind of lotion do these women use?

[@thereason93]

WTF? Explain please.

[@ashleypoo503]

Not feeling Meagan's makeup, a little bit too much... still pretty tho :)

[@cindyhiggs2519]

MRS.WADE PLEASE TELL YOUR HUSBAND TO LEAVE CINDY HIGGS ALONE

[@fundi28]

is hating an american cultural issue? These are 3 beautiful black women, all different shades of brown. They have made it, and should be an inspiration to the rest of us to pursue our dreams and excel in al we do in life. If the guy from Morehouse has bad taste in fashion what the hell does that have to do with the varsity/college he went to? He just has flashy taste in clothes....His jokes were lame though, so he has a whack sense of humour. Judge the situation and not the person.

[@DaRealJA]

Regina Hall

[@derron444]

ma woman Meagan Good.

[@ShamaraMurray]

They could gav

[@OHEMGEEWTF21]

black people truly dont age.megan good is like in her thirties and union is almost 40. wow

[@hopedthomas]

meagan is FAR too beautiful for that much makeup

[@16Mind]

u know her perosnally?.....and why would she hate light skin people when they are ALL BLACK? lol.......being light doesnt mean u HAVE to be mixed.....and being DARK doesn't mean u are black (mixed dark skin fgirls)..o and it doesn't mean u are insecure either...black is black:)-

[@alicetindilee1327]

maybe you guys were on a break and he was sorry, you're not guna find someonelse like that. #TALK OF PREACHING WATER ......

[@Dwyanerose]

blacks age the best

[@BGambino1215]

a sexy ass racee

[@wyecee]

I'm not white though.

[@AfrikanGod1]
