Director Gina Prince-Bythewood and star Thuso Mbedu shared clips and insights into the upcoming African fantasy film, “Children of Blood and Bone,” at the Martha’s Vineyard African American Film Festival. The discussion highlighted the rarity of films like this being made and praised author Tomi Adeyemi.
The opening night of the 24th annual Martha’s Vineyard African American Film Festival (MVAAFF) featured a presentation by “Children of Blood and Bone” director Gina Prince-Bythewood and actress Thuso Mbedu. They showcased never-before-seen clips from the forthcoming film, offering attendees a glimpse into the world Adeyemi created.
Prince-Bythewood emphasized the significance of the project, stating, “Obviously films like this don’t get made very often.” This suggests a lack of representation or funding for African fantasy films within the industry. She also lauded Tomi Adeyemi, the author of the source novel, as a “genius,” indicating her strong belief in Adeyemi's creative vision and storytelling ability.
The event provided an early look at the film’s development and offered insights from key members of the production team. The presentation took place during a discussion with “The View.”
