Prodotto da Jordan Peele (Get Out), il nuovo film di Spike Lee, intitolato BlacKkKlansman, debutterà in concorso al prossimo Festival di Cannes.
Interpretato da Adam Driver e John David Washington, racconta un’operazione sotto copertura all’interno del KKK, per smascherarne le trame oscure, da parte di due poliziotti di Colorado Springs.
Il film pare sia stato girato come una commedia di blaxploitation anni ’70, molto comica e surreale.
Questa è la prima immagine dei due protagonisti.
From visionary director Spike Lee comes the provocative story based on Ron Stallworth’s real life as Colorado Springs’s first African-American police officer who went undercover to infiltrate the Ku Klux Klan. Unbelievably, 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. Produced by the team behind the Academy-Award® winning Get Out, Spike Lee uses his trademarktake-no-prisoner style and humor to tell this story often missing from the history books.
