Starting with Glass, the seventy-year-old Samuel L. Jackson is having an amazing year. With Captain Marvel, Spider-Man: Far From Home and Shaft hitting theaters in the first half of the year, the star has no signs of slowing down when it comes to mainstream theatrical events.

The later, which is directed by Fantastic Four's Tim Story, brings back three generations of the Shaft name, with the 2000 Jackson iteration earning top billing. The film also stars Jessie T. Usher and the original Shaft, Richard Roundtree, returning back to the saga.

Today, Warner Bros. dropped a poster for the film, which will be domestically released in theaters. As for international territories, the film will be going straight to Netflix, due to the company funding half the movie's budget. With an amazing tagline like this, it is no doubt Shaft fans will be on board for another round of NYC's coolest private eye.

2001 flick is actually pretty good. Can't touch the original, but its not bad.

Bale was DESPICABLE AS [frick]


Jeffrey Wright made me think he was actually Dominican. He was that good.
