Martin Scorsese's highly anticipated film, "Killers of the Flower Moon," has been generating buzz among movie fans since it was first announced.

Release Date and Premiere

According to Apple TV, the film will have a limited release in theaters worldwide on October 6, 2023, followed by a wider release on October 20. While the exact date for its streaming release on Apple TV Plus has not been announced, the company has committed to an exclusive run for “Killers of the Flower Moon.”

The film is aiming for a Cannes premiere in 2023.

According to Variety, the Apple Original film may have its international debut at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival, since Cannes director Thierry Fremaux apparently traveled to Los Angeles to see the film, along with other prospective programming titles.

According to reports, the running duration may play a role in whether or not “Killers of the Flower Moon” succeeds at Cannes, but main star Leonardo DiCaprio is keen to return to the festival after going for Quentin Tarantino’s 2019 Oscar winner “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.”

If “Killers of the Flower Moon” makes its Cannes premiere, it will be Scorsese’s first trip to the festival since winning Best Director in 1985 for “After Hours.”

Plot and Writing

“Killers of the Flower Moon” is based on David Grann’s best-selling book, which follows the serial murder of members of the oil-rich Osage Nation in 1920s Oklahoma. The crimes, known as the Reign of Terror, led to the birth of the FBI. The film’s script was co-written by Scorsese and Eric Roth, the Oscar-winning screenwriter behind “Forrest Gump” and “Dune.”
