STX Films has released the official poster for producers Anthony and Joe Russo’s upcoming action film 21 Bridges, offering us our first look at Chadwick Boseman’s  character. Set to debut on July 12, you can check out the full poster in the gallery below and look for the full trailer tomorrow!

Directed by Brian Kirk (Luther, Game of Thrones) and written by Adam Mervis, 21 Bridges (previously titled 17 Bridges) follows a disgraced NYPD detective (Boseman) who is given a shot at redemption. Thrust into a citywide manhunt for a cop killer, he begins to undercover a massive conspiracy that links his fellow cops to a criminal empire and must decide who he is hunting and who is actually hunting him. During the manhunt, Manhattan is completely locked down for the first time in its history — no exit or entry to the island including all 21 bridges.
