When outlaw Nat Love discovers that his enemy Rufus Buck is being released from prison he rounds up his gang to track Rufus down and seek revenge. Those riding with him in this assured, righteously new school Western include his former love Stagecoach Mary, his right and left hand men — hot-tempered Bill Pickett and fast drawing Jim Beckwourth—and a surprising adversary-turned-ally. Rufus Buck has his own fearsome crew, including “Treacherous” Trudy Smith and Cherokee Bill, and they are not a group that knows how to lose.
The Harder They Fall features an All-Star ensemble cast including Jonathan Majors (Lovecraft Country) as Nat Love, Idris Elba (The Suicide Squad) as Rufus Buck, Regina King (Watchmen) as Trudy Smith, LaKeith Stanfield (Judas and the Black Messiah) as Cherokee Bill, Zazie Beetz (Deadpool 2) as Stagecoach Mary, and Delroy Lindo (Da 5 Bloods) as Bass Reeves. It will also star Danielle Deadwyler, Edi Gathegi, R.J. Cyler, Damon Wayans Jr., and Deon Cole.
