This cast is insane! It includes Idris Elba, Jesse Williams, Michael K. Williams, Isaiah Washington, Bokeem Woodbine, Clifton Powell, Harry Lennix, Denzel Whitaker, Roger Guenveur Smith, Rosario Dawson, Kelly Hu, Shanola Hampton, Erykah Badu, and more...
I am a little concerned about having that many stars in one piece of work (especially since it's a short and not a feature film) but who knows it just might be the key to success for this piece.
The plot is pretty basic and typical of a western, BUT I'm sure that Jeymes and his team will find a way to make it explosive.
"Four outlaws with a bounty on each head, set a date for a shootout in Langston, Oklahoma. The last man takes the collective bounty. Violence and mayhem ensue."
Check out some of the stills from the movie....
I hope we get word of this in North America as Jeymes is based in the UK. I can't wait to see this....
And as a bonus, the indiewire.com site has some other great tidbits about Black Cinema. So if you're a film fan you might want to check out the rest of the site.
Would you watch this movie?
