Chadwick Boseman is world-renowned as the Marvel Cinematic Universe's Black Panther, a powerful superhero dedicated to justice and upholding the legacy of his noble father. But this mesmerizing American actor wants audiences to know there's more to him than rippling muscles, a hard stare, and a regal charisma. With 21 Bridges, Boseman drops the Wakandan accent and flashes an easy smile -- along with a badge -- as a cowboy cop on a mission. Produced by Boseman and Avengers: Endgame directors Anthony Russo and Joe Russo, this hard-R crime-drama offers a graphic and gritty tale of heroics. Yet its premise has some similarities to T'Challa's origin story.
Directed by Brian Kirk, 21 Bridges begins at a funeral. The voice of a charismatic preacher booms over a quiet congregation. Listening intently as a big tear runs down his baby face is 13-year-old Andre Davis (Christian Isaiah), who grieves his father, the heroic NYPD officer in the closed casket. The preacher speaks of sacrifice, dedication, and being an avenger. Cut to decades later, Andre (Boseman) is grown and an NYPD detective looking to live up to the example his father set. However, Andre's idea of protect and serve has earned him a reputation as a "cop-killer killer." In nine years of service, he's drawn his firearm eight times, killing eight suspects. Andre carries no guilt about these deaths because he lives by a code. He never fires first or without cause. To others, he might seem a trigger-happy madman. But, Andre sees himself as a servant of justice and God. He'll do what he feels is right, whatever it takes.
