'Rob Peace' actors preview heartbreaking true story

Oscar nominee Chiwetel Ejiofor ("12 Years a Slave," "Dirty Pretty Things") is credited with directing, writing and starring in a devastating true story about a brilliant, young man, played by actor Jay Will ("The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel," "Tulsa King").
In "Rob Peace," the title character's father (played by Ejiofor) is imprisoned for a double homicide that he might not have committed.
"Rob became obsessed with getting his father out of prison. He was convinced his father was innocent. That obsession, in some ways, derailed in his life," Ejiofor said. "He went to Yale in the meantime to do molecular biochemistry and biophysics, and was just an exceptional talent, brilliant mind."
Also starring Mary J. Blige and Camila Cabello, "Rob Peace" is now in theaters nationwide.
