Watch this trailer for Candyman. Watch it five times!

‍Candyman is co-written and produced by Jordan Peele. But this movie is actually a sequel to the original Candyman. The titular slasher is an urban legend who haunts Chicago’s Cabrini-Green housing projects. Once he was a Black man, a son of a slave, who loved a white woman during the Civil War. But not only was he lynched, he had his hand chopped off and replaced with a hook. And he was covered in honey and stung to death by bees! So now when you say his name five times in the mirror you’re in for a lot of buzzing, a lot of goo, and a lot of pointy murder.

Tony Todd returns as Candyman in this sequel, the protagonist is played by Yahya Abdul-Mateen II.

‍Candyman is directed and co-written by Nia DaCosta and also stars Teyonah Parris, Nathan Stewart-Jarrett, Colman Domingo, and Vanessa A. Williams. It releases this June, 2020.
