Open Road has unfurled the official trailer for the biographical drama Marshall [MARSH]. Chadwicvk Boseman [CBOSE] plays Thurgood Marshall as a young lawyer working on a sensational racially-charged case in 1941 Alabama, before he went on to become the first African-American Supreme Court Justice. Marshall opens wide on October 13th.
Long before he sat on the United States Supreme Court or claimed victory in Brown v. Board of Education, Thurgood Marshall (Chadwick Boseman) was a young rabble-rousing attorney for the NAACP. The new motion picture, MARSHALL, is the true story of his greatest challenge in those early days – a fight he fought alongside attorney Sam Friedman (Josh Gad), a young lawyer with no experience in criminal law: the case of black chauffeur Joseph Spell (Sterling K. Brown), accused by his white employer, Eleanor Strubing (Kate Hudson), of sexual assault and attempted murder.
