HBO’s President of programming, Casey Bloys, says about the upcoming documentary, “The Defiant Ones has everything you expect in a great story—drama and humor, tragedy and triumph. Allen Hughes takes you on a journey through some of the most important flashpoints of popular culture, and I’m delighted that we can bring this unforgettable saga to our viewers.
What do we think about The Defiant Ones official trailer? The popcorn is already popped for the mini series premier. The trailer does a great job of capturing all of the different featured artists that we will see in the documentary and hook us just enough into wanting to watch the actual four part series. Based on the trailer, we are about to get an accurate depiction of what it took for two of the biggest names in the industry to get to where they are today.
