Academy Award winner filmmaker Steve McQueen and writer Gillian Flynn (author of Gone Girl) team up to give the audience a gripping intense action thriller in “Widows” starring a heavyweight cast – Viola Davis, Michelle Rodriguez, Elizabeth Debicki, Cynthia Erivo, Liam Neeson, Colin Farrell, Robert Duvall, Jon Bernthal, Daniel Kaluuya and Brian Tyree Henry.

Four women take matters into their own hands when their husbands unexpectedly perished with unfinished criminal activities in “Widows”. Hunted by their late husbands’ client who pressed on the responsibility of paying the debt their husbands left, the characters of Davis, Rodriguez, Debicki and Erivo join forces to outwit the crime lords preying on them and move on with their own terms.

Writers Guild of America nominee Gillian Flynn pens a script with Steve McQueen (12 Years A Slave), who also directs “Widows”.

Buckle up for a stirring brain and brawn thriller in cinemas when “Widows” opens December 5 in PH theaters nationwide.
