“We Grown Now” had its world premiere at the 2023 Toronto International Film Festival, where it received strong reviews for its direction, performances, and story about two young friends who come of age in the Cabrini-Green housing complex during the early 1990s. Director, writer, and producer Minhal Baig and actors Lil Rel Howery & Jurnee Smollett were kind enough to spend some time talking with us about their experiences making the film. Please be sure to check out the film, which is now playing in select theaters from Sony Pictures Classics. Thank you, and enjoy!
