IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

Chadwick Boseman headlines this exciting action-drama that runs with its intriguing high-concept premise all the way through – and if the Marvel connections weren’t enough already, the film is also produced by Avengers: Endgame directors Anthony and Joe Russo!
