Peter Dinklage riding a horse in The Thicket
The Big Picture After nearly ten years, Peter Dinklage is about to enter The Thicket. Less than a month remains until the long-gestating dark Western adaptation arrives on Tubi and Collider is offering some extra insight into the feature while we wait with an exclusive new sneak peek and a set of character posters showing off the rag-tag group assembled to take on Cut Throat Bill and her thugs.
Based on the novel of the same name by Joe R. Lansdale, The Thicket primarily follows Jack Parker , an innocent man who turns to bounty hunters and outlaws like Jones to help save his sister from the clutches of Bill. The killer has constantly slipped through the cracks, taking who she wants and what she wants without ever getting a gun to her head thanks to her cunning.
Each of the posters shows off the characters along with a bit of their personalities. Reginald and Jack will be joined by a grave-digging son of an ex-slave named Eustice Hollow and a street-wise woman-for-hire named Jimmy Sue with a reputation to rival even Bill's. The sneak peek sees the former join Reginald and Jack in a fight against some of the cutthroat's men.
'The Thicket' Took a Long Road to Reach the Screen The journey to screens has been a long and winding one for The Thicket with a few different stars and creatives attached over the years. It lingered in development for years before director Elliott Lester finally joined the crew in 2019 alongside screenwriter Chris Kelley. Before the current group signed on, Sophia Lillis, Noomi Rapace, and Charlie Plummer were all set to star alongside Dinklage, but this iteration stalled out.
It now has a strong cast around its main core too, with The Toxic Avenger director Macon Blair reuniting with Dinklage as a co-star alongside Andrew Schulz, David Midthunder, Arliss Howard, and Metallica frontman James Hetfield in his first major acting role. Everyone will finally enter The Thicket when it premieres on Tubi on September 6. Check out our exclusive sneak peek above and the posters in the gallery below.
