Taraji P. Henson continues to turn heads in her latest role as Vivian Thomas on Peacock's Fight Night: The Million Dollar Heist. The series follows the infamous story of how an armed robbery on the night of Muhammad Ali’s historic 1970 comeback fight ultimately transformed Atlanta into the “Black Mecca" of the country. The period piece also stars Kevin Hart ("Chicken Man"), Samuel L. Jackson ("Frank Moten"), Don Cheadle ("JD Hudson"), and Terrence Howard (“Cadillac Richie”).


Taraji, Kevin Hart's love interest in the show, is described by TODAY as his "part-time partner, part-time lover." Vivian assists Hart's Chicken Man, who believes that the comeback fight is going to make the perfect opportunity to climb his ranks in the Black Mafia. Chicken Man's "million-dollar idea" is to convert his basement into a makeshift Vegas casino— it's this house party that will make him part of the Black crime syndicate nationwide.
