Post Jennifer Hudson's future
After she finishes recording her album, do you think she'll be back in the movies. I thought she was awesome in Dreamgirls (and I'm assuming many did also, seeing how she won an Oscar) and I'm just wondering what everyone thinks her future in movies will be.

I'm thinking she'll fade out of the lime light.

^Oh, I hope not. I think she's a wonderful performer.

I hope she continues to sing and maybe do more movies. She is extremely talented and I'd like to see more of her. I'd love it if she got to create a role in a new musical, so I could play out that CR as much as I do with the Dreamgirls soundtrack. :)

I really hope she does. Her "I Tell You I'm Not Going" was just so captivating and moving.

I think that she will become more famous, and eventually, stop. I love the way she sings "I love you I do". She has an amazing voice.

I thought that might happen, too, but then she won so many awards for her performance... That might give her more longevity. Of course, being in one successful movie doesn't guarantee that you'll become a big star, but it seems to have given a definite punch to her career--probably not enough to automatically make her an A-list celebrity, but certainly enough to catch the attention of the public. Dreamgirls was very successful and people love the whole "rags-to-riches" aspect of her story, what with being kicked off of AI and now singing on a top-selling soundtrack and winning an Oscar... She's already kicked more ass with her career than most of the past AI champs. There's no way of knowing for sure whether or not she'll really get popular, but I wouldn't write her off yet.

I'm pushing for her as Carrie in the Carousel movie with Hugh Jackman, since a black Carrie is rather standard since the 1994 production did it.

Um... Jennifer Hudson doesn't have the right kind of voice to play Carrie. If that happened, it would be one of the worst miscastings in film history!
