Our February ‘Truth Be Told’ cover star, Gabrielle Union, thinks Coco Jones and Ryan Destiny would be the perfect actresses to play her younger self in a biopic. We caught up with the beauty on set of our digital cover shoot where she played a game of rapid fire and revealed who she would choose to portray her in a movie about her life. As for an older Union, the Apple TV+ series star listed Ashanti and Janet Jackson.

In our cover story interview, by Tarana Burke, Union talks about the meaningful role of Eva in the TV drama Truth Be Told despite it taking a toll on her mental health.

“I looked at it as an opportunity to expand the conversation to try to be impactful. I’ve been talking about this for 30 years. Literally had the 30-year anniversary of my rape during the production of Truth Be Told. I’m 50. I felt like, I’m in a solid place to do this job. What I did not realize is, during my rape, I disassociated.”
