From Universal Pictures Home Entertainment: BLACKkKLANSMAN

UNIVERSAL CITY, Calif., Sept. 20, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Follow the incredible true story of Ron Stallwortth, an African-American police officer who infiltrates the Ku Klux Klan in the unbelievably bold, BlacKkKlansman, arriving on Digital and the all-new digital move app MOVIES ANYWHERE on October 23, 2018 and on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray™, DVD and On Demand on November 6, 2018 from Universal Pictures Home Entertainment. Hailed by critics as "hugely entertaining" (Stephanie Zacharek, Time) and "electric" (Eric Cohn, Indiewire), BlacKkKlansman comes from acclaimed director Spike Lee and Academy Award-winning producers Jason Blum (Get Out, Whiplash) and Jordan Peele (Get Out, "The Last O.G.").

Based on the book Black Klansman by Ron Stallworth, BlacKkKlansman is filled with outstanding performances from an all-star cast led by John David Washington ("Ballers," Malcolm X), Adam Driver (Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Logan Lucky), Topher Grace (Interstellar, "That 70's Show") and Laura Harrier (Spider-Man: Homecoming, The Last Five Years) alongside an incredible roster of supporting talent including Alec Baldwin ("Saturday Night Live," Mission Impossible – Fallout), Corey Hawkins (Straight Outta Compton, Kong: Skull Island), Ryan Eggold ("The Blacklist," "Sons of Liberty") and Paul Walter Hauser (I, Tonya, Super Troopers 2).

From visionary filmmaker Spike Lee comes the incredible true story of an American hero. In the early 1970s Ron Stallworth (Washington) becomes the first African-American detective in the Colorado Springs Police Department. Determined to make a difference, he bravely sets out on a dangerous mission: infiltrate and expose the Ku Klux Klan. He recruits a seasoned colleague, Flip Zimmerman (Driver), into the undercover investigation. Together, they team up to take down the extremist organization aiming to garner mainstream appeal. BlacKkKlansman offers an unflinching, true-life examination of race relations in 1970s America that is just as relevant in today's tumultuous world.
