First look at Durkin's long awaited second feature.
Writer/director Sean Durkin arrived on the scene to considerable acclaim back in 2011 with his feature debut Martha Marcy May Marlene, but aside from helming the UK TV mini-series Southcliffe back in 2013, he seemed to disappear. But now Durkin is indeed back with a new movie, The Nest.
The 1980s set film stars Jude Law and Carrie Coon as a couple who move to an old manor house in England, where their marriage begins to unravel. Anne Reid, Oona Roche and Charlie Shotwell also star.
The Nest is in US cinemas September 18th. A UK/ROI release has yet to be announced.
Check out the trailer and official synopsis below.
The official synopsis reads:
Rory (Jude Law), an ambitious entrepreneur and former commodities broker, persuades his American wife, Allison (Carrie Coon), and their children to leave the comforts of suburban America and return to his native England during the 1980s. Sensing opportunity, Rory rejoins his former firm and leases a centuries-old country manor, with grounds for Allison’s horses and plans to build a stable. Soon the promise of a lucrative new beginning starts to unravel, the couple have to face the unwelcome truths lying beneath the surface of their marriage.
