Check out this brand new trailer for American Fiction, a new film based upon the book ‘Erasure’ by Percival Everett. Jeffrey Wright, Tracee Ellis Ross, John Ortiz, Erika Alexander, Leslie Uggams, Adam Brody, Keith David, Issa Rae and Sterling K. Brown lead out the main cast of this one.
The film is coming to select US cinemas from 15th December, expanding a week later from Amazon MGM Studios and Orion.
The work is written for the screen and directed by Cord Jefferson.
American Fiction confronts our culture’s obsession with reducing people to outrageous stereotypes. Jeffrey Wright stars as Monk, a frustrated novelist who’s fed up with the establishment profiting from “Black” entertainment that relies on tired and offensive tropes. To prove his point, Monk uses a pen name to write an outlandish “Black” book of his own, a book that propels him to the heart of hypocrisy and the madness he claims to disdain.
No word on a UK release as yet but we’ll keep you posted.
Here’s the new trailer.
