Selma Trailer. Ava DuVernay‘s Selma (2015) movie trailer stars David Oyelowo, Carmen Ejogo, Tom Wilkinson, Tim Roth, and Giovanni Ribisi. Selma‘s plot synopsis: “SELMA is the story of a movement. The film chronicles the tumultuous three-month period in 1965, when Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. led a dangerous campaign to secure equal voting rights in the face of violent opposition. The epic march from Selma to Montgomery culminated in President Johnson (Tom Wilkinson) signing the Voting Rights Act of 1965, one of the most significant victories for the civil rights movement. Director Ava DuVernay’s SELMA tells the story of how the revered leader and visionary Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (David Oyelowo) and his brothers and sisters in the movement prompted change that forever altered history.”

Selma also stars Tessa Thompson, Cuba Gooding Jr., Lorraine Toussaint, Alessandro Nivola, Jeremy Strong, Tom Wilkinson, Dylan Baker, Oprah Winfrey, Common, André Holland, and Keith Stanfield.
