It's official: Mudbound is going to be a film! Dee Rees (Pariah, Bessie) is directing a dream cast headed by Carey Mulligan, Garret Hedlund, Jason Clarke and Jason Mitchell (pictured above), along with Mary J Blige, Rob Morgan and Jonathan Banks. Shooting began May 27th in Louisiana and will continue through early July. No word yet on a release date but I'll keep you posted! (And yes, I know I'm using a ridiculous amount of exclamation points, but I can't help myself.)
