Social Media Buzzes Over Mahershala Ali's 'Your Mother' Trailer

We’re Seated! We’re Seated! We’re Seated!

Single fatherhood can be complicated, especially if you’re a religious hitman like Mahershala Ali in the gripping trailer for buzzy film, Your Mother Your Mother Your Mother, in select theaters September 25 (everywhere in October).

Father of three by day, sword-wielding assassin by night, Ali shines as a man balancing faith, family, and dangerous work hours in the intriguing film that’s already generating Oscar buzz across Hollywood.

Check out the trailer below:

Directed by Bassam Tariq (who was initially slated to direct the canceled Blade movie), Your Mother Your Mother Your Mother also stars John Cho, Abubakr Ali, Laith Nakli, Tramell Tillman, Tiffany Boone, and Giancarlo Esposito, with Adia and Jahleel Kamara.

Elevating the film into a must-experience event is Mahershala’s reunion with Tariq after the high-profile collapse of their long-awaited Blade project at Marvel.

In a now-viral interview with GQ, Ali revealed that he’s moved on from Blade after years of delays, cast shakeups, creative dead-ends, and sword training which he’ll show off in Your Mother.

“No offense to them. I’ve been doing this professionally for pushing 30 years now, and one thing I’ve learned is that what is for you is for you and what is not is not,” he said. “For whatever reason, that project is not for me. If they wanted to do it, we would’ve done it. So I have to move on, and I have moved on.”

This comes after Marvel President Kevin Feige admitted to feeling like a “gigantic loser and failure” for not getting Blade off the ground seven years after announcing the project at Comic-Con.

“I’m feeling very excited that we got Wesley [Snipes] back for a time in Deadpool & Wolverine and like a gigantic loser and failure that we didn’t get off the ground with Mahershala,” he admitted on Josh Horowitz’s Happy Sad Confused podcast.

With the seemingly never-ending Blade saga finally over, we’re excited to see theaters packed in support of Mahershala this fall.
