The movie features an ensemble cast of Chadwick Boseman, Delroy Lindo, Clarke Peters, Norm Lewis, Isiah Whitlock Jr, Paul Walter Hauser, Jean Reno, and Jonathan Majors.

It is about four African American war veterans who return to Vietnam to search for their dead squad leader’s body and the promise of buried treasure.

Lee has co-written the film with Danny Bilson, Paul Demeo, and Kevin Willmott.

The project is Lee’s follow-up to 2018’s BlacKkKlansman , which won him an Oscar for best-adapted screenplay at the 91st Academy Awards.
