Chadwick Boseman will be starring in upcoming thriller 'Message From the King'
The Entertainment One and Ink Factory project, which would be helmed by Belgian director Fabrice Du Weltz, would see Boseman, 37, who was recently cast as Marvels' 'Black Panther,' in the role of a man who has to find his sister's killer in the one week time of his trip to South Africa.
The film, which was penned by Stephen Cornwell and Oliver Butcher and is being produced by Ink Factory's Stephen Cornwell and Simon Cornwell with Rumble Films' David Lancaster, would also give an executive producer credit to Boseman.
EOne and Ink Factory would co-finance the project, which is slated to begin production in Los Angeles in February, with eOne handling worldwide sales.
