While Lovers Rock releases on 27 November, One Night In Miami debuts on 15 January on Amazon Prime Video.

From Regina King’s directorial debut to the second film in Steve McQueen’s Small Axe anthology, this week saw multiple trailers.

One Night in Miami

One Night in Miami is an adaptation of Kemp Powers’ 2013 stage play which finds iconic historical figures: young boxer Cassius Clay, activist Malcolm X, singer Sam Cooke, and football star Jim Brown hanging out together at a Miami motel.

Powers has also written the screenplay for the film which features Kingsley Ben-Adir stars as Malcolm X, Eli Goree as Cassius Clay, Aldis Hodge as Jim Brown, and Leslie Odom Jr as Sam Cooke.

The story, which takes place on the evening of 25 February, 1964, revolves around the four men who end up baring their true selves.

Small Axe: Lovers Rock

British filmmaker Steven McQueen’s Small Axe anthology series (chronicling five different stories about London’s West Indian community that span the late 1960s to the early 1980s) saw a recent trailer release of its second installment with Lovers Rock. 

McQueen, in an earlier interview, said that it is important for him to tell stories about the Black community in the UK as they have been marginalised throughout history.

“We’re missing two generations or so of Black artists in the UK because that industry was not welcoming to Black people. There’s a hole in our narrative. These stories shaped the history of the UK. So it’s no small feat in what the West Indian population has done in the UK and the Black population has done in the UK,” he added.

Lovers Rock is set to release on Amazon Prime Video on 27 November.

Mane Number 13

The trailer of the highly anticipated Kannada film Mane Number 13 released recently. Featuring Ramana, Sanjeiv, Praveen Prem, Varsha Bollama, Aiswarya Gowda, Chetan Gandharva in crucial roles, the film trails five friends who find themselves in a haunted house.
