Netflix has shared a new The Six Triple Eight teaser trailer, previewing the upcoming WWII drama from Tyler Perry starring Kerry Washington.

What happens in The Six Triple Eight teaser trailer?

The new teaser trailer shows off more of the upcoming film, which follows the first and only Women’s Army Corps unit of color to serve overseas in WWII. The trailer shows off not only the hardships the group will have to face as soldiers in World War II but also what they’ll have to overcome to provide hope for those in battle.

The Six Triple Eight stars Kerry Washington as Major Charity Adams, who was the commanding officer of the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion, the only Women’s Army Corp unit of color to be stationed overseas during World War II. In 2022, U.S. President Joe Biden awarded the Congressional Gold Medal to the brave women of the 6888th Battalion. The film will be available for streaming later this year.

Washington will be joined by an all-star ensemble cast that includes Oprah Winfrey, Susan Sarandon, Sam Waterston, Ebony Obsidian, Milauna Jackson, Kylie Jefferson, Shanice Shantay, Sarah Jeffery, Pepi Sonuga, Moriah Brown, Jeanté Godlock, Jay Reeves, Jeffery Johnson, Baadja-Lyne Odums, Donna Biscoe, Gregg Sulkin, Scott Daniel Johnson, and Dean Norris.

“The film tells the inspiring true story of the incredible and brave women of the only all-black, all-female World War II Battalion,” reads the synopsis. “These 855 women joined the war effort with little knowledge of what exactly they would be doing, but were quickly given the mission of a lifetime: sort through and fix the three-year backlog of undelivered mail. A herculean task, that most thought to be impossible, the women not only succeeded but did it in half the time they were given. Facing discrimination, unfamiliar land, and a war-torn country, they persevered and sorted over 17 million pieces of mail, reconnecting American soldiers with their families and loved ones back home. The motto that kept them going each day was one they created themselves: ‘No Mail, Low Morale.’ The women of the 6888 weren’t just delivering mail, they were delivering hope.”

The Six Triple Eight is written and directed by Tyler Perry, based on Kevin M. Hymel’s 2019 article published in WWII History Magazine.
