Focus Features has released an official first-look photo from Spike Lee’s “BlacKkKlansman” which will open in cinemas on August 10th.
John David Washington, Adam Driver, Laura Harrier and Topher Grace co-star in the series based on Ron Stallworth’s real life as Colorado Springs’ first African-American police officer who went undercover to infiltrate the Ku Klux Klan.
Detective Stallworth (John David Washington) and his partner Flip Zimmerman (Adam Driver) penetrate the KKK at its highest levels to thwart its attempt to take over the city.
Charlie Wachtel, David Rabinowitz, Kevin Willmott, and Spike Lee co-wrote the script while Lee, Jordan Peele, Jason Blum, Shaun Redick, Sean McKittrick and Raymond Mansfield all produce.
