Overview

• Werner Herzog’s 'Bucking Fastard' stars real-life sisters Kate and Rooney Mara as Joan and Jean Holbrooke, inseparable twins who gained tabloid fame.
• The film is based on the true story of the Holbrooke sisters, who lived on society's margins and pursued an obsessive quest for an imaginary land of true love.
• Domhnall Gleeson and Orlando Bloom co-star as the sisters' government-assigned social worker and their shared ex-lover, respectively.
• Principal photography wrapped on April 26, with filming locations in Dublin, Sligo, and Slovenia; first-look images were released on May 13.
• HanWay Films will market the film globally at the Cannes Film Market, where it is positioned as the final chapter in Herzog’s operatic triptych alongside 'Fitzcarraldo' and 'Grizzly Man.'
