As we’ve seen over the years, Mary J. Blige is one amazing talent. Recently it was announced that she would be taking her talents to Netflix, something we’re extremely excited about. She’ll be a co-star in the show “Umbrella Academy.” She’s signed on for one year but anything can happen, right?!
Her role in this one will be of Cha-Cha, a time-traveling assassin of sorts. What an interesting role and one we really would not have seen coming until this announcement. There hasn’t been any word on when this one will premiere but our guess would be sometime in 2019. This means she could have an Academy Award under her belt, considering she is up for two in 2018 because of her role in Mudbound!
