“A Soldier’s Story” | Thursday, Feb. 1
Early-career Denzel Washington appears in a supporting role in this Oscar-nominated adaptation of Charles Fuller’s Pulitzer Prize-winning “A Soldier’s Play.” (Worth noting: another adaptation is now in the works for TV based on the recent Broadway adaptation of “A Soldier’s Play,” with David Alan Grier, who plays a supporting role in “A Soldier’s Story,” expected to reprise his Tony-winning performance for the screen.) But it’s Howard E. Rollings Jr. who leads the cast here as Captain Richard Davenport, a Black Army investigator who travels to a remote military base to look into the mysterious murder of a Black sergeant toward the tail end of World War II, arriving to discover an Army regiment and a community torn apart by race and segregation. The cast also features Adolph Caesar, Art Evans, David Harris, Dennis Lipscomb, Larry Riley, Robert Townsend, William Allen Young, John Hancock, Patti LaBelle, and more.

“Candyman” | Tuesday, Feb. 13
Nia DaCosta, Jordan Peele, and Win Rosenfeld’s sequel to the '90s classic flew somewhat under the radar despite acclaim thanks to three pandemic-related release delays. Yahya Abdul-Mateen II stars in the present-day supernatural horror film as an artist who begins to explore Candyman’s history, not knowing it would lead him to a violent obsession. Teyonah Parris, Nathan Stewart-Jarrett, and Colman Domingo co-star with Vanessa Williams, Virginia Madsen, and Tony Todd reprising their roles from the 1992 film.
