Wonder Project Production and Kingdom Story Company have announced the upcoming release of a powerful new faith-based film by Cyrus Nowrasteh called Sarah's Oil.
Starring Zachary Levi and Naya Desir-Johnson, Sarah’s Oil is inspired by the book “Searching for Sarah Rector” by Tonya Bolden.
The movie tells the remarkable true story of Sarah Rector, an African American girl born in Oklahoma Indian Territory in the early 1900s, who believes there is oil beneath the barren land she’s allotted and whose faith is proven right.
As greedy oil sharks close in, Sarah turns to her family, friends, and some Texas wildcatters to maintain control of her oil-rich land, eventually becoming among the nation's first female African American millionaires—at eleven years old.
Producers for the film include Andrew and Jon Erwin, John Shepherd, Cyrus Nowrasteh and more.
Executive Producers include Russell Wilson, Ciara, Tony Young, Katelyn Botsch, Robert Scott Fort and Sherry Kang.
You can watch the official trailer for Sarah’s Oil now right HERE.
Sarah’s Oil will release in theaters on November 7, 2025. You can find out more about the film ahead of its release right HERE.
