'Loving' Trailer: Biopic Depicts Couple That Got Interracial Marriage Legalized
Interracial marriage wasn't legal across the United States until 1967. The white husband and black wife who got the Supreme Court to make the final, embarrassingly late decision to recognize this foolishness—nine years after their own wedding—were named, fittingly enough, the Lovings. The story of Mildred, Richard and their three children got an HBO documentary for Valentine's Day 2012, and this November, they'll get a Hollywood biopic.
Watch the Loving trailer up top; it's written and directed by Jeff Nichols (Mud, Midnight Special) and stars Ruth Negga (Preacher, Warcraft) and Joel Edgerton (Zero Dark Thirty, The Great Gatsby), with support from Nick Kroll and Michael Shannon.
