First trailer for Samuel L Jackson’s new Netflix movie

As a passionate admirer of powerful storytelling that resonates deeply with my own experiences and roots, I eagerly anticipate the release of “The Piano Lesson” on Netflix. The trailer alone has stirred emotions within me, transporting me back to my grandmother’s tales of resilience, heritage, and the indomitable spirit of our ancestors. The cast, led by the charismatic Samuel L Jackson and John David Washington, promises a cinematic experience that I can’t wait to immerse myself in.


The first trailer for Samuel L Jackson’s new Netflix movie The Piano Lesson has been released.

The upcoming movie, featuring actor John David Washington from “Tenet”, unfolds post-Great Depression era, centering around the Charles family and their legacy – a piano adorned with carvings made by one of their ancestors who was once enslaved.

The powerful first trailer sees Washington’s character Boy Willie showcase the instrument to the next generation, telling the young girl: “You feel that? That’s your family, that’s your blood.”

Next, we witness a sequence of pictures spanning the past and present, with Boy Willie explaining that if she’s in need, her ancestors “may be there to lend a hand.”

“Tell your mama to tell you about that piano. Ask her how them pictures got on there.”

The play “The Piano Lesson” is derived from August Wilson’s original work, who also penned the plays “Fences” and “Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom.” These three stories comprise his “The Century Cycle,” a series that explores the lives and experiences of African Americans throughout the 20th century.

In this film, Malcolm Washington makes his first attempt as a director, working alongside Mudbound’s Virgil Williams on the screenplay.

I’m excited to share that this game features acting talents like Ray Fisher from Justice League, Danielle Deadwyler known for Till, Michael Potts who shone in Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom, and Corey Hawkins, a standout performer in The Tragedy of Macbeth.

Denzel Washington, who is the father of John David Washington, is credited as a producer.

Additionally, it’s been made official that Jackson will team up with Henry Golding in the upcoming sci-fi suspense movie titled “Head Games“.

In this film, the central character assumes the role of a private chef as a cover, allowing him to secretly penetrate the residence of the ex-CEO from a cutting-edge neuroprosthetics company.

The Piano Lesson will debut in cinemas on November 8 and Netflix on November 22.
