Viola Davis' THE WOMAN KING Footage Reaction Video - CinemaCon 2022
Prepare yourselves for an upcoming badass historical movie coming out titled The Woman King. The historical drama was directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood (The Old Guard), from a script by Dana Stevens (City of Angels, Safe Haven, Fatherhood).
Viola Davis stars in the film alongside John Boyega, Lashana Lynch (Captain Marvel, No Time to Die) and Thuso Mbedu (The Underground Railroad).
The film project is inspired by true events that took place in the Kingdom of Dahomey, “one of the most powerful states of Africa in the 18th and 19th centuries. The story follows Nanisca (Davis), general of an all-female military unit, and Nawi (Mbedu), an ambitious recruit, who together fight enemies who violated their honor, enslaved their people and threatened to destroy everything they’ve lived for.”
Seriously, this movie looks incredible and we can’t wait to watch it! The movie hits theaters on September 16th, 2022. Now, check out our reaction video!
