The Big Picture Ahead of the upcoming thriller movie Desperation Road, which stars Garrett Hedlund, Willa Fitzgerald, and Academy Award winner Mel Gibson, Collider is excited to collaborate with Lionsgate to exclusively present the first trailer and images from Nadine Crocker's new film. The gritty and dramatic story centers around Russell Gaines , a former convict striving to rebuild his life following his release from prison.
Close Who's Behind 'Desperation Road'? Walter Josten and Cassian Elwes are acting as producers on the film, which is based on the 2017 novel of the same name by Michael Farris Smith, who also produces while serving as the movie's screenwriter. Smith's other novels include 2021's Nick, 2020's Blackwood, and 2018's The Fighter.
"Nadine Crocker is one of the most exciting young directors to appear in my life in quite some time," said Elwes, adding, "With this cast and script, she is making something incredible." Patrick Josten, Veronica Radelli, Peter Graham, Steve Hays, Paul Robarts, and Katy Bodenhamer are also on board as executive producers for the film.
In a statement released back in October 2022 when Gibson and Hedlund were cast, director Crocker said: "Garrett and Cassian had been on my vision board for years, but I couldn't have dreamt of working with Mel Gibson, Garrett, and Ryan Hurst on my second film," said Crocker.
Desperation Road will be released theatrically and via video on demand on October 6. You can check out the trailer for the movie down below.
