Chiwetel Ejiofor & Liam Payne Support 'Widows' Movie At London Screening

Chiwetel Ejiofor and Liam Payne both hit the red carpet for the Widows movie screening held at Tate Modern on Wednesday night (October 31) in London, England.

The two celebrities stepped out to support director Steve McQueen‘s film, and Liam gave the film high praise afterwards.

“The film literally floored me it’s like three films in one. A must see,” Liam shared his high praise of the movie on Instagram.

Widows centers on Veronica, Linda, Alice and Belle, who have nothing in common except a debt left behind by their dead husbands’ criminal activities. Tensions soon rise when they take fate into their own hands and conspire to forge a future on their own terms.

The film is out on Friday, November 16th.
