UK trailer for The Hero starring Sam Elliott, Laura Prepon and Krysten Ritter

December 10, 2017 by Amie Cranswick

Ahead of its UK home entertainment release next month, a trailer has arrived online for director Brett Haley’s comedy drama The Hero which stars Sam Elliott, Laura Prepon, Krysten Ritter, Nick Offerman and Katharine Ross; watch it below after the official synopsis…

Lee Hayden (Elliott) is a Western movie icon with a golden voice, but his best performances are decades behind him. He spends his days reliving old glories and smoking too much weed with his former co-star-turned-dealer, Jeremy (Offerman), until a surprise cancer diagnosis brings his priorities into sharp focus. He soon strikes up an exciting, contentious relationship with stand-up comic, Charlotte (Prepon), and he attempts to reconnect with his estranged daughter, Lucy (Ritter), all while searching for one final role to cement his legacy.

The Hero is set available on digital download from January 8th and on DVD on January 29th.
