Townson is best-known for her work on Everybody Hates Chris, while Odom is best known for her roles in The Bobby DeBarge Story and Undercover Brother 2.
The film is an authorized biopic, meaning that both Salt and Pepa have approved the project and are actively involved in production. It will be directed by iconic New Jack City director Mario Van Peebles. Queen Latifah is an executive producer on the project.
