Inspired by Lynda LaPlante’s 1980s TV series of the same name, Widows is a modern-day thriller set against the backdrop of crime, passion and corruption. The story of four women with nothing in common except a debt left behind by their dead husbands’ criminal activities, this contemporary Chicago-set tale was scripted by Gillian Flynn (Gone Girl) and directed with taut economy by Steve McQueen (12 Years a Slave).
