Mahershala Ali‘s new film Your Mother Your Mother Your Mother‘s official trailer is out. The action drama with Blade director Bassam Tariq will see Ali play Latif, a “devoutly religious” hitman on a brutal journey while struggling with his wife’s death. The adventure takes Latif across Houston.

It marks Tariq’s second feature film as director following his debut with Mogul Mowgli. After that, Tariq turned his attention to directing episodes of the comedy-drama series Bait, starring Riz Ahmed. The new film won’t be the first time Tariq collaborated with Ali, as the duo previously spent considerable time prepping for Marvel Studios’ canceled Blade feature.

The trailer opens with Latif struggling to make ends meet while raising his three children, one of whom is a newborn. With his wife gone, Latif finds himself having to take on parental responsibilities he wasn’t prepared for. To do right by his children, Latif finds himself returning to his old job as a hitman, facing a variety of foes. The footage includes several shots of him fighting enemies with a sword, giving fans a glimpse of how he would have moved during action scenes if Blade ever came out.
