He's starring in a revenge thriller
He’s been best known for playing real-life people with 42 and Get On Up, but before he joins the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Black Panther, Chadwick Boseman is squeezing in a revenge thriller. He’ll play a man looking for justice in Message From The King .
Belgian director Fabrice du Welz is calling the shots from Stephen Cornwell and Oliver Butcher’s script. The plot follows a man named Jacob King, who touches down in Los Angeles from South Africa in search of his younger sister. He has only a few hundred dollars to his name and a plane ticket that means he must return home a week, but is devastated to learn that his sister has died. Burning with the need for vengeance, he tracks down the people responsible across the next six days.
Boseman is on as a producer for the film, which should kick off shooting in February before he has to go and report for duty on Captain America: Civil War to start work on his five-film Marvel deal.
In addition to his superhero duties, he’ll also be seen in Alex Proyas’ Gods Of Egypt, which is scheduled to arrive here on February 12, 2016.
