Trivia / Da 5 Bloods

---

• Production Posse:
  • Delroy Lindo, Clarke Peters, Norm Lewis, and Isiah Whitlock Jr have all worked on multiple Spike Lee joints.
  • Paul Walter Hauser and Jasper Pääkkönen both appeared in BlacKkKlansman.
• What Could Have Been:
  • The story was originally developed by Oliver Stone, who abandoned it in 2016. Spike Lee then acquired the screenplay and revamped it with his writing partner Kevin Wilmott, changing the race of the main characters from white to African American and bolstering the political content.
  • Samuel L. Jackson, Giancarlo Esposito, and Don Cheadle were eyed for roles.
