Chadwick Boseman Joins “Yasuke”

Chadwick Boseman is set to star as Yasuke. Yasuke is a native of Portuguese Mozambique who was taken to Japan as a slave in the 16th century and became a samurai for Oda Nobunaga. He is the only known person not of Asian descent to become a samurai.  

The Boseman-starring film is being written by Doug Miro. The project hails from Erik Feig’s Picturestart, Mike De Luca’s De Luca Productions, Stephen L’Heureux’s Solipsist, and Boseman and Logan Coles’ X-ception Content.

A rival Yasuke film is in development at MGM and Whalerock Industries with Stuart C. Paul writing the script.
