The first trailer for the Nelson Mandela biopic, 'Mandela: Long Walk To Freedom,' has been released.

The video features a voice-over from Idris Elba, who plays Mandela in the film, saying:

"I have walked a long way to freedom. It have been a long road, and it's not over yet. No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin. People learn to hate. They can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart."

The movie will present the journey of Nelson Mandela from childhood to South Africa's First Black President.

It will open in U.S. theaters on November 29.
