According to The Hollywood Reporter, Fox Searchlight is prepared to donate 10% of the "Roll Bounce" opening weekend tally to Operation USA for Hurricane Katrina.

"Also, on Thursday, the night before "Bounce’s" theatrical opening, Searchlight will partner with DirecTV to screen the film at more than 80 shelters in the Gulf Coast region.

Set to bow in more than 1,700 theaters, the PG-13 "Bounce," a 1970s-set coming-of-age comedy starring Bow Wow, Chi McBride, Mike Epps and Nick Cannon, is tracking well with audiences and could earn $8 million-$10 million in its opening frame."
