FILM WEEK: Widows billboards...

Ocean's 8 isn't the only female heist movie hitting the big screen this year, as Widows draws its inspiration from the past to deliver another crime thriller this weekend.

Based on Lynda La Plante's British 1980s drama series and directed by Oscar-winning British director Steve McQueen, four women band together to attempt a heist to pay off a Chicago crime boss after their husbands are killed in a botched robbery.

Viola Davis, Michelle Rodriguez, Elizabeth Debicki and Cynthia Erivo are the four women with nothing in common who band together and take their fates into their own hands.

These movie billboards were photographed along Olympic Boulevard, Bundy Drive, Westwood Boulevard and Pico Boulevard on November 3, 2018.

Fans of Viola Davis can also check out these How to Get Away with Murder billboards, these Fences movie billboards and these film billboards for The Help.

Daily Billboard can't help but wonder is a film called Widows shouldn't have just focused on its female cast to sell the movie in its key art.

Up against the Fantastic Beasts sequel and other early Thanksgiving movie offerings, can Widows pull off the heist of the century this weekend at the box office and steal the show?
