[Photos] ‘From the Rough’ Movie Premiere: Taraji P Henson, Omarosa & LeToya Luckett

The premiere for the new film, ‘From the Rough’, starring Taraji P. Henson took place Wednesday afternoon (April 23rd) at Los Angeles’ ArcLight Hollywood. Taraji (wearing Charlotte Ronson and Jimmy Choo shoes) brought along her handsome son, Marcel to the premiere. TV personality Omarosa Manigault attended, in honor of her late fiance, Michael Clarke Duncan, who also starred in the film. We also spotted singer/actress LeToya Luckett, who co-stars in the film.

From the Rough is a sports drama based on the true story of Catana Starks (played by Taraji), a former Tennessee State Tigersswim coach, who became the first woman ever to coach a college men’s golf team. With drive, passion, and guts, she took an unruly group of mismatched kids from around the world and guided them to an all-time record at the PGA National Collegiate Minority Championship.

Tasked with building Tennessee State’s first golf team and finding only one available African American golfer – Craig, a former caddy with plenty of talent but no confidence – Catana Starks pushes outside TSU’s Historically Black context, and, against huge resistance, opens up the roster to underprivileged kids from around the world.

Check out the trailer.

From the Rough hits theaters April 25th.
