Excited to see this film. I wrote my dissertation at uni about the Black Partner Party. Can’t wait to see what Daniel Kaluuya does with the role, he’s a great actor.
Watch the trailer for Judas and the Black Messiah, a movie about the betrayal & assassination of Fred Hampton, chairman of the Black Panther Party. Starring Daniel Kaluuya & LaKeith Stanfield. Only in theaters. “You can murder a revolutionary, but you can’t murder a revolution.”

It’s actually very unfair how as a black Actor I haveto go to a barbers to cut my hair for a shoot but the hair & make up team on the job I’m working on get credit for it. Barbers deserve credit for their work just like everyone else.
