Ahead of its anticipated screening in the upcoming El Gouna Film Festival — which will be running from October 27th to November 3rd — Martin Scorsese’s"Killers of the Flower Moon" will be released in Egyptian cinemas on Wednesday, October 18, by Four Star Films, the film's distributor in Egypt.

Directed and written by Scorsese and co-written by Eric Roth based on David Grann’s bestselling book of the same name, "Killers of the Flower Moon" stars the two Academy Award winners and legendary stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro and is set at the turn of the 20th century, when oil brought a fortune to the Native American Osage Nation, skyrocketing their wealth overnight.

Consequently, said wealth immediately attracted white interlopers keen on manipulating, extorting, and stealing as much Osage money as they could before resorting to murder.

Based on a true story and told through the improbable romance of Ernest Burkhart (Leonardo DiCaprio) and Mollie Kyle (Lily Gladstone), "Killers of the Flower Moon" is an epic Western crime saga where real love crosses paths with unspeakable betrayal.

In addition to the aforementioned cast members, the movie stars Jesse Plemons, Tantoo Cardinal, Cara Jade Myers, Janae Collins, Jillian Dion, and more.
