The Hate U Give is a 2018 American coming-of-age teen drama film co-produced and directed by George Tillman Jr., and written by Audrey Wells, who died a day before the film's release. Based on the 2017 young adult novel by Angie Thomas, the film stars Amandla Stenberg as a high school student navigating the fallout of her friend's death in a police shooting. The supporting cast includes Drew Starkey, Regina Hall, Russell Hornsby, Lamar Johnson, KJ Apa, Sabrina Carpenter, Common, and Anthony Mackie.

The project was announced in March 2016, and casting took place from August to September 2017. Principal photography began that same September in Atlanta and wrapped in November. Originally, Kian Lawley was cast in Apa's role, but he was fired after footage of him using racial slurs resurfaced. Apa was brought in to reshoot Lawley's scenes in April 2018.

The Hate U Give premiered at the 2018 Toronto International Film Festival on September 7, 2018, and was released in the United States on October 5, by 20th Century Fox. The film received critical acclaim and grossed $34.9 million worldwide on a $23 million budget. Stenberg's performance earned several accolades, including the NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Actress in a Motion Picture and a Critics' Choice Award nomination for Best Young Performer.
