Netflix has shared the new trailer for A JAZZMAN'S BLUES. The new film, which stars Broadway's Solea Pfeiffer and Joshua Boone, will begin streaming on September 23.
A sweeping tale of forbidden love, A JAZZMAN'S BLUES unspools forty years of secrets and lies soundtracked by juke joint blues in the deep South.

A JAZZMAN'S BLUES will make its World Premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival on Sunday, September 11.
The film will feature an original song performed by Ruth B., songs arranged and produced by multi-Grammy winner & two-time Academy Award nominee Terence Blanchard, music by Aaron Zigman and choreography by Debbie Allen.
The trailer and film features "Paper Airplanes," a brand-new song from singer-songwriter Ruth B., which she co-wrote with multi-GRAMMY-winning artist Terence Blanchard. "Paper Airplanes" will also be featured on the upcoming soundtrack for A JAZZMAN'S BLUES, which will be released on Milan Records.
Pfeiffer starred in the national tour of Hamilton as Eliza and in New York City Center's production of Evita. She was Guenevere in the one-night-only performance of Camelot, alongside Lin-Manuel Miranda.
