In ‘Honey’, Jessica Alba stars as Honey Daniels, a dancer and choreographer struggling to get by until she gets her one big break. When she finally tastes success, it feels too good to be true. And it is - until Honey gets a new dream fuelled by the exuberant energy of a group of neighbourhood kids who bring her back to the sheer joy of letting it all out on the dance floor.
Honey also stars Lil Romeo, winner of the 2001 Billboard Music Award for ‘Rap Artist of the Year’, as Benny, a kid who needs a break even more than Honey does. Mekhi Phifer (8 Mile) portrays Chaz, a good guy with the connections that count.
The young, high-energy cast also includes David Moscow, Zachary Williams, Joy Bryant and Lonette McKee, with cameo appearances by hip hop/R&B stars Missy Elliott, Ginuwine, 3rd Storee, Sean Desmond, Tweet, Jadakiss and Sheek of The L.O.X.
Veteran filmmaker Marc Platt (Legally Blonde) and music mogul Andre Harrell (Strictly Business) are producing ‘Honey’, and the film is released in the UK on March 12, 2004.
