Having found no salvation in the latest Terminator film, rapper/actor Common has been cast in the main male lead role in the upcoming sports-themed romantic comedy Just Wright.

Written by Michael Elliot, the film revolves around a sports trainer who finds herself falling in love with a professional basketball player while rehabilitating him from a career-threatening injury.

Queen Latifah and Paula Patton also star. It is being helmed by Sanaa Hamri who plans to begin filming next month in New York City.
