About time!

I thought this project wouldn't take place as Don tried to pitch the idea to the production companies for so many years now. Seems really promising and I can't wait until it gets shown in theatres.

Thanks for the great post

Thanks. Been waiting for this.

So when can we expect to see this?

Don’t Call Don Cheadle’s New Miles Davis Movie Miles Ahead a Biopic

Ostensibly about Davis's cocaine-addicted cave years of living as a hermit in an Upper West Side mansion in the late '70s, it's also a fictional buddy caper, in which a gun-toting Davis heads out into the night to track down some asshole record producers who've stolen tapes of his new music while accompanied by a shady white guy posing as a Rolling Stone reporter (Ewan McGregor), and flashing back to happier times with his first wife, Frances Taylor (Emayatzy Corinealdi). Cheadle goes full Davis, in billowing silk shirts and crazy curly hair, with attitude to spare, for a performance that is likely to be on a short list for Oscar nominations next year. What's real? What's not? Even Davis scholars might not come away knowing, and that's Cheadle's point.

Filmed here in Cincinnati! Recognize the area, walk by it all the time.

We now have the Bruce Willis film Marauders about to film here. the new hollywood.

Wow, this makes me more excited to see it!!!

Looks good. For me, the only problem is that, as much as I like Ewan McGregor, I always feel that he essentially plays Ewan McGregor in every movie he's in. Here, for example, he's Ewan McGregor in some 70s clothes. So, watching the clip, being unable to stop noting that one of the participants in the dialogue is clearly Ewan McGregor, is a little like having someone continually whispering in my ear: "So, by extension, you know that's not really Miles Davis, right? Look! It's just Don Cheadle dressed up like Miles Davis. Ok, carry on enjoying the movie..."
