Based on a true story, Central Park Five will chronicle the notorious case of five black teenagers, Antron McCray, Kevin Richardson, Yusef Salaam, Raymond Santana and Korey Wise, who were convicted of a rape they did not commit. The series will span from the spring of 1989, when each was first questioned about the incident, to 2014 when they were exonerated, and a settlement was reached with the city of New York.
Niecy Nash, Storm Reid, Suzzanne Douglas and Aunjunae Ellis also star in the film. Watch the full trailer below.
