Still cut Killers of the Flower Moon (Apple TV)

JAKARTA - Leonardo DiCaprio returned to the big screen through his latest film, Killers of the Flower Moon. A first trailer released by Apple TV+ features DiCaprio's action under the direction of director Martin Scorsese.

DiCaprio plays Ernest Burkhart, a man who kills his wife, Mollie (Lily Gladstone) to inherit access to a oil mine owned by his family. On the other hand, there is Jesse Plemons who acts as an FBI agent who works in the early stages of law enforcement.

This two-minute trailer features an oily background that is an advantage for Osage's nationality where many people become wealthy overnight. But the wealth of the Native Americans began to be colonized by white intruders who began to blackmail and steal them.

Mollie is a part of the Osage nationality which is married to Ernest Burkhart. This film highlights the love story as well as the ties of crime at one time.

Killers of the Flower Moon is adapted from David Grann's non-fiction book. This book tells the story of several murder cases in Osage in the 1920s. At that time an FBI team was formed specifically to investigate this case.

The film also stars Robert De Niro, Brendan Fraser, TantOO Cardinal, How Jade Myers, JaNae Collins, and warehousing Dion. The script was worked on by Eric Roth and Scorsese and produced by DiCaprio along with a number of other well-known producers.

Killers of the Flower Moon became Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro's first collaboration with their collaborator, Martin Scorsese.

This first trailer was released the day before the film was scheduled to premiere at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival. The film will air on Cannes on May 20, 2023 but is not registered in any competitions.

Meanwhile, Killers of the Flower Moon will premiere on a limited basis in theaters before being released globally via Apple TV+ in October.
