Spike Lee releases trailer for "Da 5 Bloods" Iconic filmmaker and Oscar winner Spike Lee has just released the trailer for his next film Da 5 Bloods, which will premiere on the streaming service Netflix. The film centers around four Vietnam veterans that travel back to Vietnam to retrieve the remains of their leader Chadwick Boseman who was killed in the Vietnam War and also get their hands on a hidden treasure from long ago. The four soldiers are portrayed by actors Paul (Delroy Lindo), Otis (Clarke Peters), Eddie (Norme Lewis), and Melvin (Isaiah Witlok) and Jonathan Majors will star as Paul's son, who accompanies them on the trip as well. RECOMMENDED: SPIKE LEE TALKS ABOUT MAKING DA 5 BLOODS Spike Lee spoke with Vanity Fair and said this about African American soldiers that were fighting in Vietnam at the time Dr.King was assassinated “Let me tell you a story. The United States Armed Forces came close to being torn apart when black soldiers heard that Dr. King was assassinated. They also heard that their brothers and sisters were tearing s**t up in over 100 cities across America. The tipping point came very close; the black soldiers were getting ready to set it off in Vietnam — and not against the Vietcong either.” Da 5 Bloods will premiere June 12th on Netflix watch the trailer below
