Lions Gate Films has an offical website up for ), the adaptation of
Othello set in a South Carolina school.  Oddly, Julia Stiles looks as
she were black on the main page of the site.  To see it, go to
http://www.othemovie.com/index.html

The film is due for release in August.

By the way, earlier reports claimed that there is a gang rape of
Desdemona at the end of the film.  They are totally wrong.  There is no
such scene.
