In the wake of news that On Swift Horses is closing SXSW, Sony Pictures Classics has set an April 25 theatrical release for the Jacob Elordi and Daisy Edgar-Jones drama.
Based on the novel by Shannon Pufahl, the film is directed by Daniel Minahan (Deadwood: The Movie) and follows Muriel and her husband Lee as they are beginning a bright new life in California upon Lee’s return from the Korean War. But their newfound stability is upended by the arrival of Lee’s charismatic brother, Julius, a wayward gambler with a secret past. A dangerous love triangle quickly forms. When Julius takes off in search of the young card cheat, he’s fallen for, Muriel’s longing for something more propels her into a secret life of her own, gambling on racehorses and exploring a love she never dreamed possible. Will Poulter, Sasha Calle and Diego Calva also star.
The film is presented by Ley Line Entertainment, FirstGen Content, Cor Cordium, The Dan Corp, Wavelength, and Killer Films. The film is executive produced by Nate Kamiya, David Darby, Claude Amadeo, Randal Sandler, Chris Triana, Jenifer Westphal, Joe Plummer, Christine Vachon, Mason Plotts, Alvaro R. Valente, Bryce Kass, Lauren Shelton, Jeffrey Penman, Jacob Elordi, Daisy Edgar-Jones, Teddy Schwarzman and John Friedberg and produced by Peter Spears, Daniel Minahan, Tim Headington, Mollye Asher, Theresa Steele Page, and Michael D’ Alto.
