Jeymes Samuel directed the upcoming tale.
The Big Picture Two thousand years ago, a man would change the course of the history of humanity. But what would it be like to live in the same town as Jesus? The Book of Clarence tries to answer that question, with Jeymes Samuel's latest project exploring the idea of a man watching Jesus' rise to power and fame from the sidelines. Vanity Fair has just released the first official look at the project, with LaKeith Stanfield playing the titular character in a small collection of images.
The curious thing about Stanfield's protagonist is the fact that he doesn't really believe in Jesus by the time the movie begins. Burdened with financial issues because of his gambling habit, Clarence has no idea of how to survive. But when he sees the influence Jesus and the apostles have on the rest of the town, he comes up with the idea of joining their ranks to gain recognition.
The supporting cast of The Book of Clarence will include a lot of recognizable names, including Omar Sy, Benedict Cumberbatch and James McAvoy, with Samuel taking his time with his twist on several notable figures for the bible. Audiences will have to wait until January of next year to enjoy the film in theaters, with the story of the charming individual having the intent of being recognized as a tale about faith in love.
LaKeith Stanfield's Spooky Year Before he can play a wholesome character who's trying his best to become someone in life, LaKeith Stanfield had to face several ghosts and monsters in some of his recent projects. In this summer's Haunted Mansion, the performer portrayed Ben, a man capable of tracking ghosts with a special camera. Ben had to help Gabbie to escape the curse that kept her in her house.
