Watch the explic­it first trail­er for Noël Clarke’s Brotherhood

17 Jun 2016

Words by Sam Thompson

The writer/​director has recruit­ed grime artist Stor­mzy for the final instal­ment in his urban crime saga.

After a brief flirt with Hol­ly­wood and a cou­ple of fair­ly under­whelm­ing direc­to­r­i­al ven­tures, Noël Clarke is return­ing to where it all began for him 10 years ago. Fol­low­ing on from Kidult­hood and Adult­hood, Broth­er­hood sees British actor and writer/​director reprise his role as Sam Peel, who faces famil­iar chal­lenges and dan­gers as he reunites with old friends. There’s also a few new faces, most notably UK grime star Stor­mzy who appears along­side Clarke as Yardz.

The film’s tagline sug­gests that this will be the last chap­ter of the hood” sto­ry, and it cer­tain­ly feels more like the end of an era than the begin­ning of a new one. Check out the trail­er above for your­self and let us know what you think @LWLies.
