Also, Amistad was released over 25 years ago--has it really been that long since you tried to get "Trinity" set up? And of course Morgan Freeman was NOT the only Black actor who could play the lead. Writing as a former Hollywood studio executive, I suspect it is more accurate to say that he might have been the only Black actor with strong enough b. o. appeal to get the picture financed.
Unfortunately, right around then was when the intergalactic widgetmakers assumed majority control and original ideas that weren't supported by "popular IP in another medium" suddenly became "hard sells."
You have built us up for a counterfactual involving the Manhattan project. Is that indeed what "Trinity" is in fact? Do we have to wait for the film to learn the answer?

I line the idea of your story, so put me on your waiting list. Your movie might create another "Morgan" .
The title was "Trinity"

Morgan Freeman would have been great.
What about Denzel Washington?
