A new trailer for Tommy Lee Jones’ latest, The Homesman, is now online and viewable in the player below, courtesy of Yahoo! Movies. We’ve also updated the film’s gallery with six new images and you can check them all out in the viewer at the bottom of this page.
Writing alongside Kieran Fitzgerald and Wesley A. Oliver, Jones brings to the screen the novel by Glendon Swarthout with an ensemble cast that also includes Hilary Swank, Meryl Streep, James Spader, John Lithgow, Tim Blake Nelson, David Dencik, Hailee Steinfeld and Jesse Plemons.
In the November 14 release, when three women living on the edge of the American frontier are driven mad by harsh pioneer life, the task of saving them falls to the pious, independent-minded Mary Bee Cuddy (Hilary Swank). Transporting the women by covered wagon to Iowa, she soon realizes just how daunting the journey will be, and employs a low-life drifter, George Briggs (Tommy Lee Jones), to join her. The unlikely pair and the three women (Grace Gummer, Miranda Otto, Sonja Richter) head east, where a waiting minister and his wife (Meryl Streep) have offered to take the women in. But the group first must traverse the harsh Nebraska Territories marked by stark beauty, psychological peril and constant threat.
