The first photos are out for Assassin’s Creed‘s director Justin Kurzel’s historical drama film True History of the Kelly Gang which premieres at the Toronto Film Festival in coming weeks.
George MacKay will portray notorious Australian bushranger Ned Kelly who died at the age of 25 in 1880 following a shootout with Australian police in the movie which is based on Peter Carey’s Booker Prize-winning novel.
Russell Crowe, Charlie Hunnam, Nicholas Hoult, Essie Davis, Thomasin McKenzie, Dacre Montgomery, Sean Keenan, Claudia Karvan, Harry Greenwood, and Markella Kavenagh co-star in the film which is said to be ‘unsentimental, brutal, raw and visceral’. Kurzel helms from a script by Shaun Grant.
