Woody Harrelson and Liam Hemsworth may have been in four Hunger Games movies together, but they didn't share a ton of screen time. So now they can go ahead and make up for all of that lost time in The Duel (formerly By Way of Helena), a new Western from Australian director Kieran Darcy-Smith, who last directed the thriller Wish You Were Here.
Also starring Alice Braga, Emory Cohen, and William Hurt, the film is set in the 1880s and centers on a Texas Ranger's investigation into the mysterious deaths and disappearances in the town of Helena. The case soon turns personal, however, and he must solve it before he loses everything.
There have been a ton of Westerns lately, some good some bad, but it's good to see the genre made relevant in Hollywood again. The Duel rides into theaters and VOD on June 24th.
