Paramount is hoping for some awards season love for 'Fences', the big-screen adaptation of August Wilson's Pulitzer Prize- and Tony-winning play, which two-time Academy Award winner Denzel Washington stars in and directs alongside Viola Davis.

The upcoming feature film, which netted Tony Award wins for both Washington and Davis in 2010 and sees them reprise their roles as Troy and Rose Maxson, is set for a December 16th release in New York and Los Angeles before going wide on Christmas Day.

'Fences' is being produced by Washington with Scott Rudin and Todd Black, and examines race relations in the 1950s. It follows trash collector Troy, who dreamed of being baseball great, and lives with his wife Rose, son Cory and his younger brother Gabriel, an ex-soldier whose war injury to his head has caused him psychological damage. Baity roles to say the least!!!

Breaking through as the first African-American woman to win the Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama, Viola Davis added the gold statue to the SAG Award that she collected for her performance as defense lawyer and university law profressor Annalise Keating on 'How To Get Away With Murder', which returns for its second season this Thursday (September 24th).

"In my mind, I see a line," she said. "And over that line I see green fields and lovely flowers and beautiful white women with their arms stretched out to me to get over that line but I can’t seem to get there no how. I can’t seem to get over that line. That was Harriet Tubman in the 1800s."

"The only thing that separates women of color from anyone is opportunity," said Davis as she thanked Shonda Rhimes, Oscar winner Halle Berry and fellow nominee Taraji P. Henson, who greeted Davis with a big hug after her name was called. Watch her powerful speech beneath:
