The Rover is a new thriller set in the Australian desert in a dangerous and dysfunctional near-future. Eric (Guy Pearce) has left everything and every semblance of human kindness behind him.
When his last possession, his car, is stolen by a gang of dangerous criminals, he sets off to track them down and is forced along the way to enlist the help of Reynolds, the naive member of the gang left behind in the bloody chaos of the gang’s most recent escape.
The Rover also stars Robert Pattinson, Scoot McNairy, David Field, Anthony Hayes and is out in the UK on August 22nd, and it looks superb.
