Led by Idris Elba, Uzodinma Iwealas story adapted by Fukunaga centers around a young boy, Agu, who, when civil war engulfs his West African country, is forced to join a unit of mercenary fighters. Not only must Agu face the death of his father and disappearance of his mother and sister, but must also join a life of violence and brutality, which is where Elbas character figures in.
It was revealed earlier this year that the film will get a fairly unconventional release, particularly for an awards season drama premiering at Venice and TIFF. While production only cost $6 million, Netflix picked up the film for a hefty $12 million and plans to release it on the same day on in October their service and limited theaters with the help of Bleecker Street. In turn, the four largest theater chains AMC, Regal, Cinemark and Carmike will not screen the film as it breaks the traditional 90-day exclusive theatrical window. However, 19 different Landmark locations will open it, specifically in New York, Los Angeles, Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington DC, Atlanta, Indianapolis, Detroit, Chicago, Minneapolis, Milwaukee, St. Louis, Houston, Dallas, Denver, Seattle, San Francisco and San Diego, Deadline reports.
If you dont live in one of those cities, itll be easily accessible across the country through the ubiquitous streaming service. Ahead of a premiere in about month, the first trailer has now arrived, which, over the course of more or less one scene, sells a deeply intense, harrowing drama with a fantastic performance from both Elba and newcomer Abraham Attah.
