Regina King made her directorial debut with the upcoming movie One Night in Miami and now the film’s release plan has been revealed!

The movie had its festival debut last month and earned rave reviews, cementing its status as a frontrunner for the upcoming awards season. Regina could become the first Black woman to be nominated for Best Director at the Oscars, just two years after she won for acting.

One Night in Miami will open in select theaters on December 25, 2020 and then it will begin streaming on Amazon Prime Video on January 15, 2021.

As Variety reports, the movie “tells a fictional account of one incredible evening, in which Muhammad Ali (Eli Goree), Jim Brown (Aldis Hodge), Sam Cooke (Leslie Odom Jr.) and Malcolm X (Kingsley Ben-Adir) gather after Ali defeated Sonny Liston in February 1964.”

Regina said in a statement, “To complete and release a film within the same year is a difficult task. We welcomed the challenge because we knew now was the time for this film to be released. Amazon fully supported our intention and I could not be more excited this prescient story will be seen across the globe.”

Just a couple weeks ago, Regina achieved something pretty awesome!

Aldis Hodge will head to the big screen with Dwayne Johnson in Black Adam.

Deadline reports that the 34-year-old actor will be starring as Hawkman in the upcoming DC Universe film.

Hawkman, aka Carter Hall, a member of the Justice Society of America. He is part of the pair of lovers from Ancient Egypt destined to constantly be reincarnated throughout time and space.

Black Adam will center on the title character, played by Dwayne, who was first created as Shazam’s archnemesis. The flick will also feature the beginnings of the Justice Society of America, a multi-generational group that preceded the Justice League.

It will start shooting in Georgia next year and also stars Noah Centineo as Atom Smasher.

Previously, Dwayne released a statement about being the anti-hero to life on the big screen.

“This role is unlike any other I’ve ever played in my career and I’m grateful to the bone we’ll all go on this journey together,” he told fans.

“One of the things I liked the most about this movie is that it’s a real-life monster,” Elisabeth shared about the film. “That’s what really curdles your blood when you watch the movie.”

She continued, “That feeling of not being believed, not being heard or being scrutinized for believing something you know in your heart to be true is something I think on varying levels we can all identify with…When I start telling people what this movie was about and how it was being used as an analogy for gaslighting, I was really surprised by how many people would get this look in their eye. It’s a commonality that I think deserves to be explored.”

FYI: Elisabeth is wearing a Tom Ford dress, Christian Louboutin shoes, Tyler Ellis bag with Djula, Le Vian, Marli New Yorkand Yves Tufenkjian jewelry.

Alfre Woodard is all smiles as she hits the red carpet at the special New York screening of her film Clemency held at the Whitby Hotel on Monday (December 9) in New York City.

The 67-year-old actress was joined at the event by co-star Aldis Hodge, the film’s writer-director Chinonye Chukwu, producer Bronwyn Cornelius, as well as Orange is the New Black stars Alysia Reiner and Adam Lindo.

Here’s the synopsis: “Years of carrying out death row executions have taken a toll on prison warden Bernadine William (Alfre). As she prepares to execute another inmate, Bernadine must confront the psychological and emotional demons her job creates, ultimately connecting her to the man she is sanctioned to kill.”

“[Producer] Bronwyn Cornelius told me about this piece, and about this young filmmaker Chinonye Chukwu. Chinonye said, ‘It is from the point of view of the people that we charge to actually carry it out.’ We haven’t done those stories and talked out loud about the fact that the people that we charge to carry out these executions have a higher PTSD rate — or as high a rate — as people with multiple deployments on battlefields,” Alfre told Variety about taking the role.

“There’s differences in how the death row inmates are treated all the way down to their dying breath,” Aldis said of the film (via The Wrap). “Anthony was in that process for 15 years by the time we meet him in the film. One can only imagine how you find faith, hope and belief when you’re sitting there, waiting for death.”

Adam Driver and Awkwafina were the big winners of the acting prizes at the 2019 IFP Gotham Independent Film Awards on Monday (December 2) at Cipriani Wall Street in New York City.

Also in attendance at the event were Best Actor nominees Willem Dafoe for The Lighthouse, Aldis Hodge for Clemency, Andre Holland for High Flying Bird, and Adam Sandler for Uncut Gems. The other Best Actress nominees in attendance were Elisabeth Moss for Her Smell, Mary Kay Place for Diane, and Alfre Woodard for Clemency.

The two leading stars were joined at the premiere by their cast mates Jed Bernard, Alex Castillo, Michelle C. Bonilla, LaMonica Garrett, Vernee Watson and Richard Gunn, as well as the film’s writer-director Chinonye Chukwu.

Here’s the synopsis: “Years of carrying out death row executions have taken a toll on prison warden Bernadine William (Alfre). As she prepares to execute another inmate, Bernadine must confront the psychological and emotional demons her job creates, ultimately connecting her to the man she is sanctioned to kill.”

“Some actors don’t want to be the villainous character,” Alfre Woodard continued. “They all want to seem heroic. I think it’s important to be the antagonist, because the antagonist is always a human being as well.”
