Trevor Noah 'in Heaven' After Lupita Nyong'o Announces Starring Role in His Biopic ~ amazing movies

Lupita Nyong'o is starring in Trevor Noah's biopic, and the "Daily Show" host couldn't be happier.

News broke Wednesday that the Oscar-winning actress had boarded the project not only as a star but a producer. She'll play Noah's mother, Patricia, in the movie, which is an adaptation of his memoir, "Born a Crime, Deadline reports. It's a development that both Nyong'o and Noah are thrilled by.

Nyong'o shared in a Feb. 21 tweet that she read Noah's memoir and "could not put the book down." (The book shares stories from Noah's childhood in South Africa at a time when interracial relationships like his parents' were taboo.) She also added that she was excited about starring in and producing the adaptation.
