Intense Trailer For For Thandie Newton's Neo-Western Thriller GOD'S COUNTRY
IFC Films has released an intense and exhilarating trailer for the dark neo-western thriller God’s Country. The movie stars Thandy Newton as a woman who finds herself fighting for her life in a small college town.
Newton plays Sandra Guidry, “a Black professor living and working in a rural college town. She discovers a mysterious red truck parked in her driveway and soon learns it belongs to a pair of local hunters seeking to enter the forest behind her house. Sandra turns them away politely but firmly – her experience tells her these are not the sort of men to welcome freely into her world. But they won’t take no for an answer, and soon Sandra finds herself drawn into an escalating battle of wills that puts her most deeply held values to the test.”
The movie is based on the short story “Winter Light" written by acclaimed author James Lee Burke. The film was directed by Julian Higgins, who also co-wrote the script with Shaye Ogbonna.
The series also stars Jeremy Bobb (The Outsider), Joris Jarsky (The Little Things), Jefferson White (Yellowstone), Kai Lennox (The Girl From Plainville), and Tanaya Beatty (Crimes of the Future). The movie hits theaters on September 16th, 2022.
