'Arkansas': Southern Gangster Film Coming Soon, Check Out the Trailer
Arkansas, the directorial debut of Clark Duke, has put its first trailer online. The film was a selection for this years SXSW Film Festival. Sadly, that event was canceled. Now, it will debut in select theaters, Apple TV+, On Demand, and Blu-ray/DVD on May 1st. Check out the trailer for the southern gangster film, along with the official synopsis, down below.
In Clark Duke's directorial debut, Kyle (Liam Hemsworth) and Swin (Clark Duke) live by the orders of an Arkansas-based drug kingpin named Frog (Vince Vaughn), whom they've never met. Posing as junior park rangers by day, they operate as low-level drug couriers by night under the watchful eye of Frog's proxies (John Malkovich and Vivica A. Fox). Swin then settles into his day job by taking up a relationship with Johnna (Eden Brolin) against orders to blend in while Kyle continues to question his night job by trying to figure out who Frog really is. Their world is then upended after one too many inept decisions, and Kyle, Swin, and Johanna find themselves directly in Frog's crosshairs, who mistakenly sees them as a threat to his empire. Based on John Brandon's best-selling book of the same name, ARKANSAS weaves together three decades of Deep South drug trafficking to explore the cycle of violence that turns young men into criminals, and old men into legends.
Arkansas, starring Liam Hemsworth, Clark Duke, Michael Kenneth Williams, Vivica A. Fox, Eden Brolin, Chandler Duke, John Malkovich, and Vince Vaughn will be available in select theaters and on disc and digital May 1st.
