Sony Pictures has released the official trailer for The Book of Clarence, the upcoming Biblical comedy from director Jeymes Samuel.
Jeymes Samuel recently discussed the film with Vanity Fair about the film, which uses biblical elements are a bit of a device to address belonging as an outsider. The Harder They Fall saw some of these threads get a moment of reflection.
"I wanted to tell a Bible story about an everyman," Samuel told Vanity Fair recently. "I always wanted to explore the Bible stories, but from the angle of the person that sells Jesus his sandals, the woman or man that owns the hair salon."
Starring LaKeith Stanfield, Omar Sy, Anna Diop, RJ Cyler, David Oyelowo, Micheal Ward, Alfre Woodard, Teyana Taylor, Caleb McLaughlin, James McAvoy and Benedict Cumberbatch.
The film releases in theatres on January 12, 2024.
