The Book of Clarence is an upcoming biblical comedy-drama, that will come to cinemas on 12 January 2024, according to Vulture.
The film stars LaKeith Stanfield, Omar Sy, Anna Diop, RJ Cyler, David Oyelowo, Micheal Ward, Alfre Woodard, Teyana Taylor, Caleb McLaughlin and other big names.
A synopsis for the film calls it "a bold new take on the timeless Biblical-era epic", according to People.
"Streetwise but down-on-his-luck, Clarence (Stanfield, 32) is struggling to find a better life for his family, while fighting to free himself of debt. Captivated by the power and glory of the rising Messiah and His apostles, he risks everything to carve his own path to a divine life, and ultimately discovers that the redemptive power of belief may be his only way out."
The film is written and directed by Jeymes Samuel. He is also a producer on the film along with Jay-Z, James Lassiter and Tendo Nagenda.
Jay-Z uploaded the trailer for the film on his reactivated Instagram. This is his first post since 2021, when he promoted the film The Harder They Fall and soon after deleted his account. The trailer is currently the only post on his Instagram page.
