Rueben's Ramblings

On February 23, the HBO original telefilm O.G. will debut at 10 PM.

Filmed in Indiana’s Pendleton Correctional Facility, an active maximum-security prison, the film follows Louis (Jeffrey Wright), once the head of a prominent prison gang, in the final weeks of his 24-year sentence. His impending release is upended when he takes new arrival Beecher (Theothus Carter), who is being courted by gang leadership, under his wing.

Coming to grips with the indelibility of his crime and the challenge of reentering society, Louis finds his freedom hanging in the balance as he struggles to save Beecher.

William Fichtner also stars.
