Whoopi Goldberg landed her latest film role after storming out of her house to complain about noisy on-set activity on her street<\/p>\n

\u2018The Color Purple\u2019 star, who has taken the part of Stagecoach Mary in director Mario Van Peebles\u2019 Western \u2018Outlaw Posse\u2019, is said to have yelled at the crew before she ended up chatting to the filmmaker about her future in acting before he offered her the role.<\/p>\n

Mario, 67, probably best known for directing and starring in \u2018New Jack City\u2019 alongside Ice-T, 66, told Page Six: \u201cI did not cast Whoopi. Whoopi cast herself. \u201cI was directing a show on the (Hulu drama) \u2018Wu-Tang: An American Saga\u2019 in New Jersey, and this neighbour came over all irate yelling, \u2018Who is making all that racket,\u2019 and it was Whoopi.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen she realised I was directing, I asked her what do you want do next, and she said, \u2018I want do a Western\u2019, and I said, \u2018I\u2019m getting ready to do a Western.\u2019 \u201cThen she said, \u2018Do you know who Stagecoach Mary is?,\u2019 and I said \u2018Yes.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

Stagecoach Mary was a mail carrier who became the first black woman to be employed as a major route postwoman in the US.<\/p>\n

\nMario added: \u201cShe did not do it for free. I still had to pay her and I would not want her to do it for free, but she did it for the right reasons.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cI have my own rule when it comes to casting for a movie: no matter who or what the person is\u2026 if we were all at camp and we were 12 years old, would I wanna play with you?<\/p>\n

\n\u201cIf the answer is yes \u2013 \u2018She will be fun to play with!\u2019 \u2013 then, yes, you are in the movie.\u201d <\/p>\n

\nA private screening of the new Western was held at Regal Union Square Theatre, New York, on Thursday (29.02.24) attended by Whoopi, French Montana and Joey Bada$$.<\/p>\n

\nAlso starring in the film, out now, are Neal McDonough, Edward James Olmos, Cedric The Entertainer, Cam Gigandet, DC Young Fly and John Carroll Lynch.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
