Who shot Biggie Smalls? Who killed Tupac Shakur?

It’s the question that’s plagued former detective Russell Poole (Johnny Depp) and journalist Jack Jackson (Forest Whitaker) for almost 20 years. And it isn’t until the two of them combine their skills that they finally begin to get close to the finding answers.

But the truth is hidden behind a shroud of deception, lies, and conspiracy.

As they work together to sift through almost two decades of deceit, they begin to realise they’ve crossed a line and find themselves dangerous territory, where even the police seem to be on the wrong side of the law...

The more they dig, they learn that the LAPD is involved in ways that would shock the public. And they’re determined to stop Poole and Jackson from rocking the boat.

Based on a true story, as told in Randall Sullivan’s hit novel LAbrynth, City of Lies is directed by Brad Furman (The Infiltrator). Johnny Depp (Murder on the Orient Express) stars as the determined ex-detective, alongside Forest Whitaker (Black Panther) as the journalist who is desperate to get to the bottom of this tangled story.
