Kill The Messenger
Jeremy Renner is back on the big screen this autumn with Kill The Messenger, and we have some great new images to check out.
Kill The Messenger is a movie that I am really looking forward to - and Renner's central performance is already being tipped as a possible Oscar contender.
Michael Cuesta is in the director's chair for the film, while Renner will take on the role of reporter Gary Webb in this true story.
We are going to have to wait until November to see the movie, but Focus Features have released a set of new pictures:
Renner leads an all-star cast, as Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Michael Sheen, Robert Patrick, Ray Liotta, Andy Garcia ad Oliver Platt are just some of the names on board.
The movie follows Webb as he stumbles onto a story, which leads to the shady origins of the men who started the crack epidemic on the nation’s streets... and further alleges that the CIA was aware of major dealers who were smuggling cocaine into the U.S., and using the profits to arm rebels fighting in Nicaragua.
Despite warnings from drug kingpins and CIA operatives to stop his investigation, Webb keeps digging to uncover a conspiracy with explosive implications.
His journey takes him from the prisons of California to the villages of Nicaragua to the highest corridors of power in Washington, D.C. - and draws the kind of attention that threatens not just his career, but also his family and his life.
Kill The Messenger is released 6th March 2015.
