Before the end of this year, we'll see Chadwick Boseman on the screen a final time. As with his feature 'Da 5 Bloods', his last film appearance will be a Netflix movie.

The movie is titled 'Ma Rainey's Black Bottom' and stars Viola Davis as well as Chadwick Boseman.

Glynn Turman, Colman Domingo and Michael Potts play supporting cast members.

The film takes place in 1927 Chicago.

It based on two-time Pulitzer Prize winner August Wilson's Broadway play.

Set during a recording session, Davis plays the legendary "Mother of the Blues," Ma Rainey, while Boseman is ambitious trumpeter Levee.

The narrative follows them and other musicians as stories revealing truths erupt in the studio, altering their lives forever.

George C. Wolfe, the two-time Tony-winning director behind 'Angels in America: Millennium Approaches' and 'Bring in ‘da Noise, Bring in ‘da Funk', directs.
