Washington [US] : The official trailer for the much-anticipated Western thriller The Unholy Trinity has dropped, teasing a dramatic showdown over a hidden cache of gold. Directed by Richard Gray, the film stars Hollywood heavyweights Samuel L. Jackson and Pierce Brosnan and is slated for a nationwide theatrical release on June 13.
Set in the rugged terrain of 1870s Montana, the story centers on Henry Broadway (played by Brandon Lessard), a young man on a quest for vengeance after his father is framed. His journey takes him to the town of Trinity, where he becomes entangled in a dangerous rivalry between two powerful men — the righteous sheriff, portrayed by Brosnan, and the mysterious outlaw St. Christopher, played by Jackson.
The trailer reveals a taut narrative built around deception, legacy, and justice. In a tense moment, Brosnan warns Broadway, “Let me give you a bit of advice: Keep your ancestry between us. Not every man who is known is loved.” Jackson, meanwhile, delivers a menacing promise: “I know your daddy real well. Me and him stole enough gold to pave the streets of heaven.”
As greed and power fuel escalating tensions, Jackson’s character declares, “In case it ain’t obvious, you will find that gold,” hinting at an explosive confrontation.
The ensemble cast includes Veronica Ferres, Gianni Capaldi, Q’orianka Kilcher, Tim Daly, Ethan Peck, Katrina Bowden, and David Arquette. The film is produced by Gray, Carter Boehm, Kellie Lessard Brooks, Jeanne Allgood Gaisford, Michele Gray, Colin Floom, and Cameron Lessard. The screenplay is written by Lee Zachariah.
Richard Gray, best known for Murder at Yellowstone City, returns to the Western genre with The Unholy Trinity, promising an intense exploration of moral ambiguity, revenge, and survival.
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, Brosnan reflected on his recent career momentum, saying, “I’ve got four movies in the can. I’m at a very joyful time to be able to move around the stage and to be able to have choices and hopefully to be able to equip myself within the roles.”
