Denzel Washington Directorial 'A Journal for Jordan' Stars Michael B. Jordan, Trailer Out

Sony Pictures drops the official trailer for A Journal for Jordan, the latest film directed by actor Denzel Washington. The film is based on the true story of a soldier deployed to Iraq who keeps a journal of love and advice for his infant son.

The epic-romantic drama stars Michael B. Jordan, Chanté Adams, Tamara Tunie, Robert Wisdom, Vanessa Aspillaga, and Jalon Christian.

A Journal for Jordan is based on Dana Canedy's story, about 200-page journal written by her fiancé, 1st Sgt. Charles Monroe King, for their son. The 48-year-old soldier was killed in Baghdad, one month shy of finishing his tour of duty. He had left for the Middle East before his son was born, and wrote this journal while stationed in Iraq to tell him how to live a decent life despite growing up without a father.

Adapted from the article entitled "From Father to Son, Last Words to Live By" by Pulitzer Prize-winning former journalist Dana Canedy, the script is written by John Burnham Schwartz and Virgil Williams.

The film will release on 22nd December 2021.
