The story of Baynard Rustin is set to be illuminated like never before. At long last.

One of most prolific activists of all time, the force forms the central focus of new Netflix-powered film ‘Rustin.’

Set to premiere next month on the streamer, the movie chronicles the unwavering spirit possessed by Baynard, who is played by Emmy winner Colman Domingo.

Unapologetic about who he was, Rustin never wavered on his beliefs or who he loved. A reality that saw him make history while (in many ways) being eradicated from it too. Until now.

Directed by 5-time Tony Award winner George C. Wolfe, ‘Rustin’ will celebrate the story of a man who dared to imagine a different world and inspired a movement in a march toward freedom alongside the likes of Martin Luther King Jr.

‘Rustin’ arrives in select theaters on November 3 ahead of its Netflix debut on November 17.

Watch the newly unwrapped extended trailer below…

Executive produced by Barack Obama and Michelle Obama (under their Higher Ground umbrella), and Tonia Davis, the film features an all-star cast including Chris Rock, Glynn Turman, Aml Ameen, Gus Halper, CCH Pounder, Da’Vine Joy Randolph, Johnny Ramey, Michael Potts, Jeffrey Wright and Audra McDonald.

We’ll be watching. Will you?
