Suspected of masterminding the crime, Chicken Man is hellbent on clearing his name but must convince his old adversary, J.D. Hudson, one of the first Black detectives in the city’s desegregated police force, who is tasked with bringing those responsible to justice.

Henson as Vivian Thomas, Don Cheadle as JD Hudson and Terrence Howard as Cadillac Richie, as well as Chloe Bailey as Lena Mosley, Marsha Stephanie Blake as Delores Hudson, Dexter Darden as Muhammad Ali, Lori Harvey as Lola Falana and Sinqua Walls as McKinley Rogers.
