Hulu has delivered on their promise of bringing the story of the Wu-Tang Clan to the small screen with its new series, starring a host of our favorites, including Erika Alexander (Living Single), Ashton Sanders (Moonlight) and Shameik Moore (Spiderman).

Sanders portrays The RZA, Moore, the legendary Raekwon and rapper Dave East as Method Man. Marcuss Callendar, Siddiq Saunderson and Zolee Griggs are also apart of the film. Reportedly Wu-Tang: An American Saga is “set in early ’90s New York at the height of the crack cocaine epidemic, the show tracks the Clan’s formation, a vision of Bobby Diggs aka The RZA, who strives to unite a dozen young, Black men that are torn between music and crime but eventually rise to become the unlikeliest of American success stories.”
