The Real Deal
The final film of Bernie Mac’s career saw him pair up with Samuel L. Jackson as the backup singers of a Motown band called “The Real Deal”. Decades later after the passing of their lead singer who had long since left them and became a huge success (played by John Legend) they reunite and go on tour and make it to the famed Apollo Theatre, though of course with the standard trials and tribulations you would expect along the way since they have not spoken to each other in thirty years. This didn’t do well at the box office (isn’t that the case always after someone died?) and since Jackson is in every other movie we aren’t sure how well remembered this is.
