Lovecraft Country's Jonathan Majors stars alongside Oscar winner Regina King, Oscar nominee Lakeith Stanfield and Emmy nominees Idris Elba and Zazie Beetz in this action Western produced by Jay-Z and Lawrence Bender (Pulp Fiction).
When outlaw Nat Love (Majors) discovers that his enemy Rufus Buck (Elba) is being released from prison he rounds up his gang to track Rufus down and seek revenge. Those riding with him include his former love Stagecoach Mary (Beetz), his right and left hand men—hot-tempered Bill Pickett (Edi Gathegi) and fast drawing Jim Beckwourth (R.J. Cyler)—and a surprising adversary-turned-ally. Rufus Buck has his own fearsome crew, including “Treacherous” Trudy Smith (King) and Cherokee Bill (Stanfield), and they are not a group that knows how to lose.
