FIRTH TO PRODUCE DOCUMENTARY ABOUT JAILED MURDERER

BRIDGET JONES'S DIARY star COLIN FIRTH and his wife LIVIA GIUGGIOLI-FIRTH are teaming up to produce a hard-hitting new documentary about jailed former Black Panther MUMIA ABU-JAMAL. Abu-Jamal has spent the last 25 years incarcerated for the murder of a Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, policeman. The project, IN PRISON MY WHOLE LIFE, will be the British actor's debut as a producer, and will feature interviews with hip-hop stars like MOS DEF, whose constant campaigning have turned the murderer into a street icon. Firth says, "It's a prism to look at how much society and grassroots politics have changed over 25 years."
