Lawless, the explosive gangster story directed by John Hillcoat (The Road) and starring Tom Hardy (Inception, Bronson), Shia LaBeouf (Transformers, Indiana Jones 4) and Gary Oldman (Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy) will be released in the UK and Ireland on 31 August by Momentum Pictures, an Alliance Films Company.
Set in the 1920s prohibition-era America, Lawless is the true story of the Bondurant brothers. Brazen and fearless, these young rural bootleggers became legendary criminals.
The youngest brother, Jack (LaBeouf) is ambitious and impulsive, the middle brother, Howard (Jason Clarke), is loyal but reckless and eldest brother, Forrest (Hardy), leads the family with a silent determination.
As the Bondurants’ illicit business and legend grows, so too looms the danger of bigger fish, and it’s not long before the brothers must face the consequences.
Mia Wasikowska (Jane Eyre), Jessica Chastain (The Help), Guy Pearce (The King’s Speech), Noah Taylor (Submarine), Jason Clarke (Public Enemies) and Dane DeHaan (Chronicle) round out the exciting cast.
Lawless is released 31st August
