Vertical has just released the first trailer forThe Order, the upcoming thriller from directorJustin Kurzeland, to be frank, it looks tremendously exciting.The film starsJude Law, Nicholas Hoult, Tye Sheridan, Jurnee Smollett,Alison OliverandMarc Maron, and follows a string of violent robberies across the Pacific Northwest. These crimes end up luring a veteran FBI agent into what has become a domestic terrorist threat, with plans to overthrow the federal government.
The trailer introduces us to a true story, with a bank heist taking place. Law’s character is then introduced to the story of Hoult’s cult, who have their own ideas on what kind of America they want it to be. And it looks a lot like 1930s Germany. The plot synopsis can be found below:
“For over a year, a series of bold daylight bank robberies and armored car heists leaves law enforcement baffled and the public panicked throughout the Pacific Northwest. As the attacks become increasingly violent, FBI agent Terry Husk (Jude Law) becomes convinced that the robberies are the work of a domestic terrorist gang that plan to use the loot to finance an armed uprising against the U.S. government. Based on a true story, The Order follows Husk and his team into the tangled world of white supremacists to try to head off a violent uprising that could shatter the nation. As the militia builds a war chest of over $4 million, Husk pursues the malevolent racist Bob Mathews to a final bloody standoff that will go down in U.S. history.”
