Terrero&#8217;s MGM feature film debut will be released 28 May 2004, when &#8220;Soul Plane&#8221; hits movie houses in the US. The comedy is being described as a new version of the slapstick &#8220;Airplane!&#8221; although its plot bears no resemblance to the 1980 classic. The story deals with Dakwon (Kevin Hart) who wins US$600 million in a lawsuit and uses the money to start up the fictitiously named airline NWA, appealing to an African-American customer base. Things get wacky on the maiden NWA flight when a white family is accidentally rerouted to the plane. Also starring in the film are Dwayne Adway, Tom Arnold, K.D. Aubert and Angell Conwell.<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0367085\/<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Dominican Republic has its own Jessy Terrero, taking Dominican cinema mainstream.
