*Rockmond Dunbar, best known for his roles on "Prison Break" and the Showtime series "Soul Food," steps behind the camera to produce and direct the indie drama "Pastor Brown," says the Hollywood Reporter.

Dunbar is producing with Carol Ann Shine and Re'Shaun Frear, while Rock Capital Films' Steve Belser, Shaun Livingston of the NBA's Los Angeles Clippers and former NBA player Charles Oakley are on board as executive producers.
Dunbar also stars in the film as Amir, a Muslim man who becomes the love interest of Brown, played by Salli Richardson Whitfield. Rounding out the cast are Nicole Ari Parker, Keith David, Michael B. Jordan, Michael Beach, Tisha Campbell-Martin, Tasha Smith, Dondre T. Whitfield and Ernie Hudson.
The film also features guest appearances by R&B singers Monica, Angie Stone and India.Arie as well as former Olympic track star Carl Lewis and Oakley.
