Netflix Unveils First Trailer For ‘The Six Triple Eight’

Netflix just dropped another hot trailer — this time for their latest Tyler Perry helmed project The Six Triple Eight which stars Kerry Washington as a WWI era Major charged with a mission that’s damn near impossible.

The Six Triple Eight is inspired by the first and only Women’s Army Corps unit of color to serve overseas in WWII. Despite facing racism and sexism – and grueling working conditions – they were committed to serving their country with honor and distinction. Given an extraordinary mission and united in their determination, these unsung heroes delivered hope and shattered barriers. Written and directed by Tyler Perry, the film stars Kerry Washington as Major Charity Adams, the commanding officer of the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion.
