Warner Bros.' new specialty label Clockwork is in exclusive negotiations for North American rights to Park Chan-Wook's Western film The Brigands of Rattlecreek. The project stars Matthew McConaughey, Austin Butler, Pedro Pascal and Tang Wei.
The deal, pegged in the mid-teen millions, is all but complete after Clockwork beat out rivals at the Cannes market. Park, president of this year's Cannes jury, will direct the film from a screenplay by S. Craig Zahler with revisions by the filmmaker himself. Filming is scheduled for the first quarter of 2027 with a budget north of $60 million.
