Mariah Carey Is Joining The Butler

Mariah Carey hasn’t made a movie since her well-received turn in Precious, but now she’s reunited with director Lee Daniels for his next film, the decades-spanning White House tale The Butler, which will star Forest Whitaker and Oprah Winfrey. No word yet on whom she’s playing, but as of today, most of the presidents and first ladies have been cast: Robin Williams and Melissa Leo will play the Eisenhowers, James Marsden and Minka Kelly the Kennedys, Liev Schreiber is LBJ, John Cusack is Nixon, and Alan Rickman and Jane Fonda will play the Reagans.
