*Brown Sugar, the popular subscription video-on-demand service from Bounce featuring the biggest selection of African-American movies, will premiere its first-ever original short film this month.
“Blackstar Warrior,” described as an original new blaxploitation-meets-Star Wars mashup starring Leonard Roberts (“Drumline,” “Love Jones”), will debut on Brown Sugar on June 24.
Set in a 1970s version of the future, the tongue-in-cheek film follows space detective Tyson Roderick (Roberts) who, in his quest to discover the truth behind his origins, stumbles into-and-must defeat a cult hellbent on taking over the galaxy.
The film was directed by Matt Haley and co-written by Simon Oré.
