Denzel Washington‘s film adaptation of the critically acclaimed play Fences, in which he directed, produced and stars, alongside Viola Davis (The Help, Suicide Squad) has just been released.
Washington and Davis reprise their Tony Award-winning roles as Troy and Rose, a married couple who face personal and societal struggles in a lower-middle-class black section of Pittsburgh during the 1950’s.
Following from the accolades the play has received since its debut in 1983, the Oscar buzz surrounding Fences is extremely high.
Fences also co-stars Jovan Adepo, Stephen McKinley Henderson, Russell Hornsby, Mykelti Williamson, and Saniyya Sydney, and is to be released in local cinemas 9th February 2017 through Paramount Pictures Australia.
