HICKOK Official Trailer
LOS ANGELES, CA - In the hopes of escaping his past as a notorious outlaw, "Wild Bill" Hickok seeks redemption as a small town lawman. Unfortunately, as the titular gunslinger discovers, the past has a way of catching up with you in HICKOK, a frontier thriller starring Luke Hemsworth ("Westworld") in his first leading role in a feature film; the period Western from Cinedigm and Status Media also stars Trace Adkins (Stagecoach, Traded, Deepwater Horizon), Country Music Hall of Famer and Golden Globe®-winner Kris Kristofferson (Traded, A Star is Born, Blade, Billy the Kid) and Oscar®-nominee Bruce Dern (The Hateful Eight, Django Unchained, Nebraska).
On July 7, HICKOK opens theatrically in ten markets including Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Phoenix, Denver, Seattle, Orlando, Tampa-St. Petersburg and Kansas City; and, day-and-date, it will also be available on demand and Digital HD.
The story of the West's most notorious gunslinger and his road to redemption, HICKOK finds the infamous, hard-drinking outlaw (Hemsworth) in 1870's Abilene, Kansas, seeking to start a new life. Captivated by Wild Bill's unparalleled gun skills, the mayor, George Knox (Kristofferson), quickly ropes him in as the town marshal.
Shot on the dusty, turn-of-the-century sets like Melody Ranch, which is also home to HBO's hit series "Westworld," the action-packed HICKOK, directed by Timothy Woodward Jr. (Traded, Weaponized, 4Got10) and written by Michael Lanahan, is filled with gritty authenticity. Co-stars include Cameron Richardson (Flashburn, "Murder in the First", Alvin and the Chipmunks) as Hickok's old flame, Kaiwi Lyman-Mersereasu (American Violence, Den of Thieves) as Hardin aka Little Arkansas and Robert Catrini ("Bosch," Jack Reacher: Never Go Back) as Sheriff Akers.
"Classic westerns hold a special place in my heart, so having the opportunity to bring such a compelling and iconic story to the screen was a real pleasure," says director Timothy Woodward Jr. "It was such an incredible honor to work with two of the western genres living legends, Kris Kristofferson and Bruce Dern, and to watch Luke Hemsworth so successfully take on the challenge of portraying one of the west's most recognizable heroes. The entire cast really brought the old west to life."
