Wild Horse Nine

Opens November 6

Martin McDonagh (In Bruges, Banshees of Inisheerin) brings his signature wit to the world of 1970s espionage with a sharp satire about American intervention into Latin America.

Shortly before the 1973 Chilean coup, CIA agents Chris (John Malkovich) and Lee (Sam Rockwell) are dispatched from Santiago to Easter Island by their bureau chief, MJ (Steve Buscemi). Amongst the Island’s iconic statues, and as the longtime partners wrestle with their dark pasts and present conspiracies, Chris’s newfound bond with a pair of rebellious students (Mariana di Girolamo and Ailín Salas) threatens to send everyone’s trip to this remote paradise sideways.

"The crackling chemistry between Sam Rockwell and John Malkovich is the dark heart of McDonagh’s entertainingly spiky film."
Jessica Kiang, Sight & Sound
"The film’s furious pessimism is precisely counterpointed by its agreeably rambling, profane comedy. From as long ago as his early play The Lonesome West, nobody has written bickering lads better than McDonagh."
Tara Brady, Irish Times
