Oscar-winning filmmaker Steve McQueen is plotting a follow-up to his last movie Widows, and he decided to join forces with BBC. He’s developing the intriguing anthology series Small Axe, with Letitia Wright and John Boyega in the leads.

Small Axe will focus on the struggles of the members of the West Indian community, living in London between the ‘60s and the ‘80s. The six-part series will tell five different stories, that McQueen wanted to share with the world.

“I wanted to relive, reevaluate and investigate the journeys that my parents and the first generation of West Indians went on to deliver me here today calling myself a black British person. What’s important about our stories is that they are local but at the same time global,” explained the 12 Years A Slave director in a statement.

Wright and Boyega aren’t the only actors cast in McQueen’s next project. Small Axe will also star Malachi Kirby (Roots), Shaun Parkes (Lost in Space), Rochenda Sandall (Line of Duty), Alex Jennings (The Crown) and Jack Lowden (War & Peace).

The series is expected to premiere on BBC One next year, and Amazon already picked the US rights.

Viola Davis isn’t a lady you’d want to cross and the same thing can be said about her character in crime drama Widows. A new trailer for the upcoming movie just dropped, and it seems like the Oscar-winning actress might collect another shiny statue.

This exciting project tells the tale of four women who decide to join forces and avenge the deaths of their husbands. Davis portrays Veronica Rawlins, leader of the unlikely band of friends, who share a very special bond. They choose to take fate into their own hands and finish the heist that killed their loved ones.

The riveting plot isn’t the only thing that makes Widows an absolute must-watch. Its star-studded cast is even more impressive, and it consists of more Hollywood big shots than anyone can count. Viola Davis, Michelle Rodriguez, Elizabeth Debicki and newcomer Cynthia Erivo will play the eponymous widows. This Oscar darling also stars Liam Neeson, Colin Farrell, Brian Tyree Henry, Daniel Kaluuya and Robert Duvall.

Steve McQueen, the director behind the Oscar-winning epic 12 Years a Slave, is helmer of the upcoming film. He co-wrote the script with Gillian Flynn, bestselling author of Gone Girl. You’ll have to wait for a few more months to see what these two creative masterminds came up with since Widows won’t premiere until November 16.
