Aaron Zigman has signed on to score the upcoming comedy We the Peeples. The movie is written and directed by Tina Gordon Chism who makes her directing debut on the project. She has previously written the screenplays for Drumline and the 2006 crime drama ATL, which featured a score by Zigman. The comedy starring Craig Robinson, Kerry Washington, Tyler James Williams and David Alan Grier centers on a young man enduring the weekend from hell when he surprises his girlfriend by showing up to meet her parents during the family’s annual end of summer celebration. We the Peeples is produced by Tyler Perry who regularly works with Zigman. The movie marks the composer’s eighth collaboration with Perry. No release date has been set yet for the film, but Lionsgate is expected to release the film this fall.
As previously reported, Zigman also has Tyler Perry’s Madea’s Big Happy Family and the Anna Faris-starring comedy What’s Your Number? coming out this year.
