Originally a story brought to small screens by prolific creator Lynda La Plante in the 1980s, Widows has now become a cinematic thriller starring Viola Davis, Liam Neeson, Michelle Rodriguez, Elizabeth Debicki and more. Check out the first trailer...

12 Years A Slave's Steve McQueen directs, working from a script he wrote with Gone Girl's Gillian Flynn. Like the original series, the film will follow the story of women who all lose their criminal husbands when the men die in the middle of robbing a security van.

Not content with mourning, the widows decide to finish the job for themselves and get the loot. Cynthia Erivo, Colin Farrell, Daniel Kaluuya and Andre Holland are all aboard, and this looks to be a tense one.

Widows will be in cinemas on 9 November.
