When the drug starts to proliferate across New Orleans, crime explodes, leading a former soldier (Jamie Foxx) with personal stake in the fight to work with a drug dealer ( Dominique Fishback , who deserves to be in the spotlight after her phenomenal turn in The Deuce and Night Comes On ) in order to control the spread and find the source. (For a taste of their adorable IRL friendship, just listen to him gush about her in this Entertainment Weekly video about the making of the film .) Joining their ersatz team is a local cop (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), and given the current debate over portrayals of law enforcement in TV and film, it’ll be interesting to see where they take that character.
