Lionsgate's 'The Quarry'
Lionsgate is responsible for the production and distribution of numerous films of various genres. Many of their films are action based films, but they have a number of mystery films as well. Most recently, Lionsgate released ‘Knives Out,’ a mystery thriller from Rian Johnson that tells a whodunit kind of story. Now, coming soon, is another mystery thriller film called ‘The Quarry’ which tells the story of a town sheriff and a drifter.
‘The Quarry’ tells the story of a drifter who was responsible for the murdering of a traveling preacher. He then travels to a small town and poses as the man he killed. The congregation that he ends up amassing in the town love his sermons about forgiveness, but not everyone trusts him. The local police chief doesn’t trust the words of the mysterious drifter and definitely thinks there is more to him. Soon, a discovery at the local quarry forces the drifter to fight for freedom.
The stars of ‘The Quarry’ are Shea Whigham, Michael Shannon, Catalina Sandino Moreno, Bobby Soto, and Bruno Bichir. The movie was written and directed by director Scott Teems. It was also written by Andrew Brontzman based on The Quarry by Damon Galgut. The film was produced by Laura D. Smith and Kristin Mann. It will release in select theaters and On Demand on April 17th, 2020.
