"Judas And The Black Messiah" is now playing on HBO Max and in select theaters after premiering at this year's Sundance Film Festival to universal acclaim. Co-writer Will Berson was kind enough to talk to us about the process of writing the film, the research that went into it, working with co-writer and director Shaka King and more! The film is now nominated at the Golden Globes, Screen Actors Guild and the Critics Choice Awards and is up for your consideration at this year's Academy Awards.
