The movie,
directed by Fabrice Du Welz, stars Boseman as a man from South Africa who has
suddenly lost all contact with his younger sister, and travels to Los Angeles
only to find evidence that she has gotten involved in the city's dark
underbelly. He then takes it upon himself to avenge her.
Luke Evans,
Teresa Palmer and Alfred Molina star alongside the Black Panther actor in
Message From the King, which is such an exciting movie to wait for.
Stephen Cornwell and Oliver Butcher penned the script, with Cornwell also producing.
The movie is produced by Entertainment One Features, Rumble Films and The Ink
Factory. Sierra/Affinity is overseeing international sales, while Solar
Pictures is releasing for Solar Entertainment. Message From The King is coming
soon in the Philippines.
Message From The King Synopsis:
After suddenly losing all contact with his
younger sister, Jacob King arrives in Los Angeles determined to track her down.
Trying to piece together her last known movements, King finds unsettling
evidence of a life gone off the rails – drugs, sex and secrets in the sleazy
underbelly of the City of Angels. Undeterred by warnings to go home, King
proves to be more than a match for the violence he is confronted with as he
relentlessly pursues the truth about what happened to his sister.
This film will perhaps open new doors for the Belgian director Fabrice Du Welz. Not really a horror movie fan but I've enjoy watching his 3 horror films: Calvaire, Vinyan, and Alléluia. Although 'Message From the King' is a thriller which is not far from the horror genre, we'll see what Fabrice will put on the table.
