Universal Pictures and Legendary Pictures have released a new trailer and character posters for Straight Outta Compton. You check out the video and the posters below!
In the mid-1980s, the streets of Compton, California, were some of the most dangerous in the country. When five young men translated their experiences growing up into brutally honest music that rebelled against abusive authority, they gave an explosive voice to a silenced generation. Following the meteoric rise and fall of N.W.A., Straight Outta Compton tells the story of how these youngsters revolutionized music and pop culture forever the moment they told the world the truth about life in the hood and ignited a cultural war.
The films stars O’Shea Jackson Jr. as Ice Cube, Corey Hawkins as Dr. Dre, Aldis Hodge as MC Ren, Neil Brown Jr. as DJ Yella and Jason Mitchell as Eazy-E. It is directed by F. Gary Gray (Friday). The movie is produced by original N.W.A. members Ice Cube and Dr. Dre, as well as producers Matt Alvarez and Tomica Woods-Wright. Will Packer serves as executive producer of the film along with director Gray.
The movie is scheduled for an August 14th release
