Renee Elise Goldsberry (TONY winner for 'Hamilton') will star as Henrietta in HBO film of 'The Immortal Life Of Henrietta Lacks'.

Oprah will star as Henrietta's daughter Deborah and Rose Byrne will play author Rebecca Skloot. NCIS Director Leon Vance (Rocky Carroll, heh-heh), will play Sonny Lacks, Henrietta's third child.

I'm excited for this.
