“A police raid in Detroit in 1967 results in one of the largest citizen uprisings in the United States’ history.”

From Academy Award winning director Kathryn Bigelow, who directed hit films The Hurt Locker and Zero Dark Thirty, Detroit is an intense drama based on the largest citizen uprising in United States history. Zero Dark Thirty was fantastic and The Hurt Locker is one of my favorite war films so I cannot wait for this!! The cast includes Anthony Mackie, John Boyega, John Krasinski, and Will Poulter. Check out the official trailers below!!

Ted Takes Fun Facts, Detroit:

  • A set depicting Detroit 1967 was also built in Brockton, Massachusetts, right at the site of the Liberty Tree, a sycamore planted in 1863 which marked a stop on the Underground Railroad where, during the Civil War, slaves on their way north to freedom were hidden during the day in the stables of Edward Bennett so they could travel at night under the cover of darkness. Filming took place here during September 2016.
  • This is the third collaboration between director Kathryn Bigelow and screenwriter Mark Boal. The first two were Zero Dark Thirty (2012) and The Hurt Locker (2009). Both Bigelow and Boal won Oscars for The Hurt Locker, including Best Picture.
