First trailer for The Rivals of Amziah King starring Matthew McConaughey

May 12, 2026 by Amie Cranswick

Black Bear has shared the first trailer for The Rivals of Amziah King, the upcoming crime thriller from writer-director Andrew Patterson (The Vast of Night).

Matthew McConaughey stars as Amziah, a musically talented man with a honey-making operation in rural Oklahoma. When his estranged foster daughter returns following a tragedy, they work together to run the family business and to stop the rivals threatening to destroy everything he has built. 

Joining McConaughey in the cast are Angelina LookingGlass, Cole Sprouse, Jake Horowitz, Tony Revolori, and Kurt Russell.

Deep within the backwoods of rural Oklahoma, charismatic and musically gifted Amziah King herds a bluegrass-playing band of misfits while overseeing the premier honey-making operation in town. When Amziah’s estranged foster daughter unexpectedly returns, Amziah leaps at the possibility to renew the connection and create a family business. But the honey game is ruthless, and Amziah’s rivals threaten to destroy everything he has built.

The Rivals of Amziah King arrives in cinemas on August 14th.
