Two Gunslingers Band Together in Latest ‘Cowboys & Aliens’ Poster
Not nearly as cool as the artistic posters here, Universal Pictures has released a new official one sheet for Jon Favreau’s Cowboys & Aliens, a sci-fi actioneer that has a hint of horror elements.
It’s a stretch that we should even be covering this, but damned if I don’t think it looks absolutely awesome.
In theaters July 29, “ ‘Cowboys & Aliens’ begins when a spaceship arrives in Arizona, 1873, to take over the Earth, starting with the Wild West region. A posse of cowboys are all that stand in their way.” It stars Olivia Wilde, Harrison Ford, and Daniel Craig.
Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”
Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach wrote the script.
Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
