RZA is back behind the camera with One Spoon of Chocolate, a gripping new feature set to premiere June 8, 2025, at the Tribeca Film Festival. The rapper, actor, and filmmaker unveiled the trailer today, offering a first look at the Southern noir drama.
A collaboration between RZA Productions and Xen Diagram Media, the film stars Shameik Moore, Paris Jackson, RJ Cyler, Harry Goodwins, Johnell Young, Michael Harney, Rockmond Dunbar, E’myri Crutchfield, Blair Underwood, and Grammy-winning country artist Jason Isbell.
Set in a small Southern town, One Spoon of Chocolate follows a former military convict whose quiet relocation from the city takes a dangerous turn as he discovers love—and a host of new problems.
The film will screen at OKX Theater at BMCC TPAC on June 8 at 8:00 PM, with additional screenings on June 9 and June 12 across various Tribeca venues.
Shot in Atlanta and written by RZA, the film is produced by Paul Hall and executive produced by Talani Diggs, Mitchell Divine Diggs, and Joe Genier.
