Americana Trailer and Poster Revealed by Lionsgate
Lionsgate has shared the official trailer and poster for the crime thriller neo-western Americana, which will open in theaters on August 22.
With a runtime of 107 minutes, the film has been rated R by the Motion Picture Association for violence, language throughout, and some sexual references.
A gallery of dynamic characters clash over the possession of a rare Native American artifact in this wildly entertaining modern-day western.
After the artifact falls onto the black market, a shy waitress with big dreams (Sydney Sweeney) teams up with a lovelorn military veteran (Paul Walter Hauser) to gain possession of it, putting them in the crosshairs of a ruthless criminal (Eric Dane) working on behalf of a Western antiquities dealer (Simon Rex).
Bloodshed ensues when others join the battle, including the leader of an indigenous group (Zahn McClarnon) and a desperate woman fleeing her mysterious past (Halsey).
Written and directed by Tony Tost (Poker Face, Damnation), Americana was produced by Alex Saks.
Lionsgate is presenting a BRON Studios / Saks Pictures Company production, in association with Rhea Films and Hercules Film Fund / Creative Wealth Media.
Principal photography for the film began in February 2022 in New Mexico. Americana had its World Premiere at the 2023 South by Southwest Film & TV Festival on March 17, 2023.
