The Harder They Fall

The Harder They Fall — Netflix releases official teaser

Posted Filed under

The Harder They Fall is coming this autumn, but Netflix has started the publicity with a teaser trailer

The new Idris Elba western looks sumptuous if the teaser for The Harder They Fall is anything to go by, and this so-called teaser comes in over two minutes long. We also have a long précis for the film:

When outlaw Nat Love (Jonathan Majors) discovers that his enemy Rufus Buck (Idris Elba) is being released from prison he rounds up his gang to track Rufus down and seek revenge. Those riding with him in this assured, righteously new school Western include his former love Stagecoach Mary (Zazie Beetz), his right and left hand men — hot-tempered Bill Pickett (Edi Gathegi) and fast drawing Jim Beckwourth (R.J. Cyler)—and a surprising adversary-turned-ally. Rufus Buck has his own fearsome crew, including “Treacherous” Trudy Smith (Regina King) and Cherokee Bill (LaKeith Stanfield), and they are not a group that knows how to lose.

Directed by Jeymes Samuel, written by Samuel and Boaz Yakin, produced by Shawn Carter, James Lassiter, Lawrence Bender and Jeymes Samuel, and featuring a red hot soundtrack and a stunning all-star cast, including Jonathan Majors, Zazie Beetz, Delroy Lindo, LaKeith Stanfield, Danielle Deadwyler, Edi Gathegi, R.J. Cyler, Damon Wayans Jr., Deon Cole with Regina King and Idris Elba revenge has never been served colder.

There’s not a lot more to add, except do take a peek at the teaser, admire the scenery, music and cast then join us waiting for the autumn. Until then, if you haven’t seen it, take a peek at Godless (from the same director (Scott Frank) as The Queen’s Gambit).
