Lionsgate has released a poster and trailer for the upcoming crime drama Arkansas. Based on John Brandon’s best-selling book of the same name, the film marks the directorial debut for Clark Duke, who also stars alongside Vince Vaughn, Liam Hemsworth, Michael Kenneth Williams, Vivica A. Fox, Eden Brolin, Chandler Duke, and John Malkovich; take a look here…
Kyle (Liam Hemsworth) and Swin (Clark Duke) live by the orders of an Arkansas-based drug kingpin named Frog (Vince Vaughn), whom they’ve never met. Posing as junior park rangers by day, they operate as low-level drug couriers by night under the watchful eye of Frog’s proxies (John Malkovich and Vivica A. Fox). Swin then settles into his day job by taking up a relationship with Johnna (Eden Brolin) against orders to blend in while Kyle continues to question his night job by trying to figure out who Frog really is. Their world is then upended after one too many inept decisions, and Kyle, Swin, and Johanna find themselves directly in Frog’s crosshairs, who mistakenly sees them as a threat to his empire.
Arkansas is set for a limited theatrical and a VOD release on May 1st, and arrives on Blu-ray and DVD on May 5th.
