The True Story Of The Kelly Gang (2019)

Picturehouse Entertainment next month will be releasing one of the most outrageously surreal and anarchic True History Of The Kelly Gang. Justin Kurzel’s electrifying new film is releasing first on Digital/EST in  June then on DVD, Blu-ray and Digital/VOD in July.

From visionary director Justin Kurzel (Snowtown, Macbeth) and based on the Booker Prize-winning novel by Peter Carey, True History Of The Kelly Gang is a bold and visceral take on the story of Ned Kelly, starring George MacKay (1917, Pride), Nicholas Hoult (Tolkien, The Favourite), Essie Davis (The Babadook, Babyteeth), Charlie Hunnam (King Arthur, The Gentlemen), Thomasin McKenzie (Jojo Rabbit, Leave No Trace) and Russell Crowe (A Beautiful Mind, Master & Commander: The Far Side Of The World).

Hero to some, outlaw to others, Ned Kelly (MacKay) throws a long shadow over Australian history. Spanning his life from his younger years to the time leading up to his death, the film follows the story of this legendary figure. Nurtured by the notorious bushranger Harry Power (Russell Crowe) and fuelled by the unfair arrest of his mother (Essie Davis), Kelly recruits a wild bunch of warriors to plot a campaign of anarchy and rebellion that will grip the entire country. Youth and tragedy collide with violent and explosive consequences but at the beating heart of this tale is the fractured and powerful bond between a mother and son.

The True History Of The Kelly Gang will be available first on Digital / EST  from 22nd June. Then on 6th July you buy the film on Blu-ray, DVD and Digital HD/VOD.
