Adapted from Victor Headley's 1992 novel.

On a hot night in Kingston, Jamaica, 1973, Jerry Dread stops the music at an outdoor party to encourage a truce between warring gangs. His little brother Denis looks on from the crowd as an assassin's bullet rings out, taking Jerry's life. A decade later, Denis is the right-hand man to gang-boss Fox, who sends him on a loyalty-testing mission to London. But when the mission goes wrong, Denis hides out with an old flame and decides to find his brother's killer.

Yardie stars Aml Ameen (The Maze Runner/The Butler/Sense8), Mark 'Rhino' Smith (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D./The Last Ship), Stephen Graham (Boardwalk Empire/ Pirates of the Caribbean/Public Enemies), Fraser James (Resident Evil: The Final Chapter/Strike Back) and Akin Gazi (Zero Dark Thirty/Da Vinci's Demons/Prison Break).

Looks like Stephen Graham is finally playing a character of Jamaican heritage like himself after playing so many other nationalities through his career.
