Across films like Set It Off, Why Do Fools Fall in Love?, Independence Day, and Kill Bill, critically heralded actress Vivica A. Fox has played a bank robber, an outspoken widow, a single mom, and a former assassin. Now, in Is God Is she plays God. Well, sort of.
Playwright Aleshea Harris translates her celebrated play Is God Is into a compelling road movie centered on Black twin sisters Racine (Kara Young) and Anaia (Mallori Johnson), who are on a life-changing quest for revenge. Minutes after being reunited with Ruby (Fox), the mother the girls had thought was long dead, she charges them with a mission: Make your daddy dead.
To the twins, Ruby is “God,” because she created them. And who are they to deny God her bloodlust?
Celebrating the film’s release, Fox sat down with Mashable’s Entertainment Editor Kristy Puchko to talk about her storied filmography, what it’s like to play God, and her high opinion of Harris, who she counts as one of her favorite directors to work with, alongside Quentin Tarantino.
Plus, she shares what it is that drives her, and the advice she’d give to those inspired by her.
Is God Is is now playing in theaters.
