Black Bag: Cate Blanchett, Michael Fassbender to star in Steven Soderbergh, David Koepp spy thriller

The script for the play “Ain’t No Mo’” started to flow out of him. Watch the exclusive video interview above.
In Cooper’s play, the United States government emails every Black citizen with the offer of a free plane ticket to Africa. A chance to escape racial oppression. A series of actors embody multiple roles, with each scene exploring how...
