Miles Ahead is a biographical film about Miles Davis, the legendary jazz musician who left an indelible mark on jazz music. Almost ten years after the nephew of the trumpeter, who died in 1991, said that Don Cheadle was the only actor who could play the "father" of bebop, we're just waiting for the first trailer for the movie, which will hit theaters in April 2016.
Miles Ahead is an American biographical film about trumpeter Miles Davis, which was named after the musician's album of the same name from the year 1957. He got into it Don Cheadle (Ocean's 11, Hotel Ruanda, Iron Man 2 and 3), who found himself not only in front of, but also behind the camera, as he is also signed as a director, producer and screenwriter.

That it is not a classic "cradle to grave" biography, the trailer lets us know right from the start, when Miles punches a Rolling Stone journalist in the face (Ewan McGregor). Even otherwise, we can expect anything but the usual chronological film narrative about a musician who is significantly influenced the development of jazz in the second half of the 20th century, as Don focused on the wildest years of Miles' life.
