“In 1892, a legendary Army captain reluctantly agrees to escort a Cheyenne chief and his family through dangerous territory.”
Co-written and directed by Scott Cooper (Crazy Heart, Out of the Furnace, Black Mass), Hostiles is a western drama set in 1892, and tells the story of a legendary Army captain who reluctantly agrees to escort a Cheyenne chief and his family through hostile territory. This film sort of came out of nowhere for me but the combination of the director and the cast alone has me pretty excited. The cast includes Christian Bale, Rosamund Pike, Peter Mullan, and Ben Foster. Check out the official trailer below!!
Ted Takes Fun Facts, Hostiles:
- Christian Bale and Rosamund Pike were supposed to work together a year before, in a movie called The Deep Blue Good-By, directed by James Mangold but the project fell through due to Bale's leg injuries. Bale recovered but the project didn't resurface and he teamed up with Pike for this project.
- This will be the first time Christian Bale and Scott Cooper worked together since Out of the Furnace (2013).
- The film had its world premiere at the Telluride Film Festival on September 2, 2017.
