Focus Features has set the date for the movie’s release. Based on a scenario created by Rockwell, the movie will be made by Sight Unseen, Make-ready, and Hillman Grad Productions.
In the past, Rockwell has written and directed a number of short films, including the 2018 feature Feathers, the 2016 film The Gospel, and an episode of the comedy series Boomerang.
Multi-hyphenate Teyana Taylor, who previously starred in Coming 2 America, plays Inez, a free-spirited and unapologetic woman who kidnaps her son Terry, a 6-year-old from the foster care system, in the next movie, though exact facts about it are still unknown.
