Thank you for opening this!
I'm excited and so thrilled to see Chad take on these socially important roles! He's come such a long way! Though, I do wonder what police officer he'll be playing Off to tweet the opening of this thread __________________

I'm assuming he'll be one of the cops who caused the shooting

That'll be hard to watch But I have full confidence that Chad will handle the role with grace.

It'll be interesting to see Chad portray someone so scary!

I am so excited for this. This is in my area and I remember how big the shooting was and I would be excited for the movie no matter what but I am glad that Chad is involved, makes it even better.

You can see the details about the shooting in the wikipedia page - BART Police shooting of Oscar Grant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I vaguely remember reading about it a couple of years ago. I'm hoping Chad plays Johannes Mehserle - The cop who shot Grant. It would be a more difficult and interesting role to tackle instead of the cop's partner. Plus, I'm a HUGE fan of Octavia Spencer! This movie is going to be fantastic! __________________

I've honestly never heard of this either but I'm really interested to read more about the characters.
Also, this explains why Chad tweeted about "The Help" the other night, since Octavia Spencer and Ahna O'Reilly were both in that movie. So this is the actor who will be playing Chad's partner in the film, Kevin Durand: Kevin Durand - IMDb He's been in a lot of action films, and a lot of them seem to be sci-fi or comic book related. And he sorta looks like the officer who shot Grant, Johannes Mehserle: at least more than Chad imo __________________

IMDb/IMDb Pro still don't have Chad's name listed, but here's an article about the victim's family feelings towards the movie:

Durand has been casted as the bad guy many, many times before so I think he might be taking the role as the officer that shot Grant I do see Chad more of the moral character...though I don't think that term is very appropriate considering I don't know the full story __________________
