- After Queen Latifah's iconic role in Set It Off, she decided that death did not become her.
- Her character Cleo went out in a blaze of glory, but any of Latifah's other roles will not deal with that same fate.
- Buzzfeed unearthed a 2017 interview where Latifah told Late Night host Seth Meyers that she has a clause in all of her movie contracts saying she won't die.
- She said, "I put a death clause in my contract right after that movie. I was like, wait a minute, I’m starting to die too good in these movies, and if I die I can’t be in the sequel."
