Nicolas Cage has had such a prolific and diverse career that it's
remarkable it's taken so long for him to appear in a western. Directed
by Brett Donowho and written by Carl W. Lucas, The Old Way sees Cage play a former
gunslinger forced to wield his pistol once more when his family is
threatened.
Ryan Kiera Armstrong, Noah Le Gros, Clint Howard, Kerry Knuppe, Nick
Searcy
and Shiloh Fernandez also star.
The Old Way is in US cinemas from January 6th, 2023. A
UK/ROI release has yet to be announced.
Check out the trailer and poster below.
The official synopsis reads:
Academy Award® winner* Nicolas Cage stars in his first-ever Western as Colton Briggs, a cold-blooded gunslinger turned respectable family man. When an outlaw and his gang put Colton and his family in peril, Colton is forced to take up arms with an unlikely partner — his 12-year-old daughter (Ryan Kiera Armstrong) — in this action-filled film that builds toward its fateful showdown with pulse-pounding suspense.
