'Lethal Weapon' star Keesha Sharp seems to be finding her passion behind the lens. Fresh off directing an episode of Fox's show, she's set to star and produce a biopic about American actress Eartha Kitt with her husband Brad Sharp, Deadline reported. Sharp has reportedly bought the rights to John Williams' 2013 biography 'America’s Mistress: The Life and Times of Eartha Kitt'.
