Having burst onto the scene with his screenplays for
Sicario
and
Hell or High Water, Taylor Sheridan turned to directing with 2017's
Wind River. For his second wielding of the megaphone he's enlisted
Angelina Jolie. Those Who Wish Me Dead sees Jolie play
a Montana forest fire-fighter who stumbles across a young boy on the run
from assassins after witnessing a murder. The film also stars Nicholas Hoult, Finn Little, Aiden Gillen, Medina Senghore, Tyler
Perry, Jake Weber
and Jon Bernthal.
A UK/ROI release date has yet to be announced but you can check out the
first trailer and poster below.
The official synopsis reads:
Oscar winner Jolie (“Girl, Interrupted,” the “Maleficent” films) stars as Hannah, a smoke jumper still reeling from the loss of three lives she failed to save from a fire when she comes across a traumatized 12-year-old boy with nowhere else to turn.
