• Michelle Rodriguez as one of the widows.
• Cynthia Erivo as one of the widows.
• Colin Farrell as a politician that finds himself mixed up in the widows' plans.

Seems neat. Got a great cast and I've liked McQueen's stuff.

Never been too big on McQueen but I'm interested in what he'd do with pulpy genre material like this.

Cast: Viola Davis, Michelle Rodriguez, Daniel Kaluuya, Liam Neeson

 

Adaptation of an ITV series about the widows of a failed heist attempt looking to finish the job. Gillian Flynn is co-writing the screenplay.

Women taking over their husbands job? 

 

No doubt the internet morons will try to destroy this. 

 

I think it sounds great. I adore Viola. 

[SLAM!]

McQueen was the one who made 12 Years A Slave. I think this could be great.

@4815162342 @WrathOfHan she's quickly taking over the world and I'm ready for it.

It's weird that this is so far away since production's about to wrap up. Make it a counterprogramming summer release or something.

Jesus @CoolioD1 is right, the man is absolutely everywhere. Give him an actual lead so he'll stop stalking us in half of the year's films.

Pretty sure he's a lead in this:

Most anticipated film of 2018 right there if he is.

[CoolioD1]

just filmed a funny video of my cat and jon bernthal showed up for a minor role.

[That One Girl]

Colin Farrell is in this.  and it's releasing on the same weekend as Fantastic Beasts 2.  boycott Fantastic Beasts 2 by purchasing tickets to Widows instead of that Depp trash.

 

@ReyReyBattery super disappointed that Farrell's not in the title btw.
