Oscar winner Matthew McConaughey, Oscar nominee Austin Butler, Emmy nominee Pedro Pascal and BAFTA nominee Tang Wei ("Lust, Caution", "Blackhat") have joined the cast of the latest film from acclaimed South Korean filmmaker Park Chan-wook ("Oldboy", "No Other Choice"). Titled "The Brigands of Rattlecreek", the film is a Western thriller based on a screenplay by S. Craig Zahler ("Bone Tomahawk", "Dragged Across Concrete"), which Park will also adapt.
The film has been described as a passion project for the filmmaker, an iconic tale of vengeance and retribution set in the American West. Here is the official synopsis: "A capstone of the themes Park Chan-wook has plumbed across his entire body of work to date, the film is an emotionally explosive and visually stunning meditation on the consequences of violence, the value of family, the power of memory, and the true cost of life."
"The Brigands of Rattlecreek" will hit the market at the Cannes Film Festival, where Park is set to preside over the competition jury. Patrick Wachsberger's 193, a Legendary company, will represent international sales for the film. Park will also produce for Moho Film, alongside Bradley Fischer ("Zodiac"). Back Jisun for Moho Film, Mike Medavoy and Georgia Kacandes are executive producers.
McConaughey was previously attached to the project in 2019 when Amazon acquired the rights to the script after it had been featured on the Black List of best unproduced screenplays since 2006.
