There’s been some behind-the-scenes tumult hanging over the big-screen adaptation of Tomi Adeyemi’s Children of Blood and Bone. The film was originally set up at Lucasfilm—an inspired change of pace for the Star Wars studio—then shifted to Paramount. However, the first trailer for Gina Prince-Bythewood’s 2027 film is now here, and maybe none of that matters? “She and her brother ally with the daughter and son of the king to fight back against his brutal rule.” Supporting players include Saniyya Sidney, Diaana Babnicova, Bukky Bakray, Ayra Starr, Shamz Garuba, Kola Bodunde, Pamilerin Afolake Ayodeji, and Tèmítópé Fágbénlé.
