On Oct 19, Netflix previewed George C. Wolfe's August Wilson adaptation Ma Rainey's Black Bottom, showcasing Chadwick Boseman's final performance opposite Viola Davis' powerhouse blues singer.

The film, shot last year, was already one of the year's most anticipated, coming as the next chapter in Denzel Washington's ongoing project to turn Wilson's plays into films, following 2016's Oscar-winning Fences.
