• Don Cheadle Details Miles Davis Biopic Movie Troubles: Casting White Costar Saved Film

    Writer, director and star of the upcoming biopic movie, Miles Ahead, based on legendary musician Miles Davis, Don Cheadle has revealed a number of details about his passion project. First off, it was very hard to make, but it almost didn't get any attention from studios because of one strange, prejudicial fact: there were no white male leads in the film. Enter Ewan McGregor's journalist character to save the day, but really, perpetuate this issue further (nothing against the Star Wars actor of course, mainly just Hollywood).
  • Which Jazz Legend Biopic Movie Should You See? 'Born to be Blue' or 'Miles Ahead' [TRAILERS]

    When it comes to biopic movies, the film industry has to deal with a number of different projects based on the same subject, but in 2016, we have a more unique issue: two separate films about two jazz icons. Both Miles Davis and Chet Baker are widely considered the two top jazz trumpet players of all time, with many debates between music enthusiasts arguing for one or the other to be named number one. This year, Don Cheadle is making his directorial debut in Miles Ahead, a biopic on Davis. Meanwhile, Ethan Hawke is portraying Baker in Born to Be Blue, which has a release date very close to Cheadle's project. The question is: which one are you willing to see in theaters? Check out the trailers below to help with your decision.
