Buzz is growing for Chinonye Chukwu’s “Till.” A trailer was released this morning. Chukwu’s film is slated for a primo October 21st release date, it’s a biopic tackling Mamie Till-Mobley (Danielle Deadwyler), an American educator and activist who pursued justice after the 1955 lynching of her 14-year-old son Emmett Till (Jalyn Hall). Test-screenings have also been excellent, with the word “intense” having been uttered a few times. Danielle Deadwyler looks fantastic in the trailer,. Despite the biopic/courtroom drama tropes on display this could be a major acting contender. Chukwu wrote and directed the Sundance-winning “Clemency” and although I wasn’t a fan of the film itself, it was exceptionally well-shot by her. It definitely paved the way for a potential future talent behind the camera. Contribute Hire me
