Red Band Trailer for ‘RZA’s One Spoon of Chocolate’ Brings the Hammer Down

RZA brings the hammer down in the red band grindhouse-styled trailer for his revenge thriller RZA’s One Spoon of Chocolate, which is presented by none other than RZA’s Kill Bill collaborator and mentor Quentin Tarantino.

The film is heavily influenced by martial arts and exploitation cinema and follows an ex-military convict seeking redemption in a small town.

Wu-Tang Clan founder RZA directed, wrote, and produced the film, which is set for a U.S. theatrical release powered by Variance Films on May 1, 2026, the same day as NEON’s Hokum.

“The film follows Unique, a veteran and ex-convict seeking a fresh start in a small town. After an altercation with a gang of locals, he starts to suspect they may have something to do with the disappearance of young men in the area – including his cousin. As he digs for the truth, he finds himself the target of not only the gang, but the local sheriff’s office, whose involvement in the disappearances may be even more sinister. Instead of waiting for his turn to be picked off, Unique and those closest to him decide to fight back.”

RZA’s One Spoon of Chocolate stars Shameik Moore, Blair Underwood, RJ Cyler, Paris Jackson, Emyri Crutchfield, Michael Harney, and Harry Goodwins. Producers are RZA, Paul Hall, and Talani R. Diggs.

It will be presented in 35mm for select engagements, including a two-week run at LA’s Vista Theatre.
