- Bill Skarsgård’s volatile performance as Tony Kiritsis is singled out, with support from Dacre Montgomery, Al Pacino, Colman Domingo, Cary Elwes, and Myha’la.
- The drama revisits the 1977 Indianapolis hostage case, centering on a shotgun-and-wire device and the intensifying media attention through a local DJ.
- Cary Elwes says Van Sant explicitly aimed to honor 1970s filmmakers and recalls a brisk 19-day shoot with principal photography in Louisville.
- Row K Entertainment is handling the theatrical release of the 105-minute feature, and reporting notes a limited-series adaptation of the same story is in development.
