New Trailer and Poster for Joe Starring Nicolas Cage

Roadside Attractions has unveiled a new theatrical poster and trailer for the dramatic film Joe starring Nicolas Cage, Tye Sheridan, Gary Poulter, and Ronnie Gene Blevins. Directed by David Gordon Green, marking a return to grittier fare after helming Prince Avalanche, Your Highness, and Pineapple Express, Joe is based on the novel by Larry Brown and adapted for the screen by Gary Hawkins.
 
Joe will open in theaters and on VOD on April 11, 2014.
 
The Plot:
 
Directed by David Gordon Green, the film brings Academy Award® winner Nicolas Cage back to his indie roots in the title role as the hard-living, hot-tempered, ex-con Joe Ransom, who is just trying to dodge his instincts for trouble – until he meets a hard-luck kid played by Tye Sheridan who awakens in him a fierce and tender-hearted protector.
 
The story begins as Joe hires teenaged Gary Jones and his destitute father onto his “tree-poisoning” crew for a lumber company. Joe might be notoriously reckless with his pick-up, his dog and especially with women, but he sees something in Gary that gets to him: a determination, a raw decency and a sense of resilience he can barely believe in anymore. Gary has truly had nothing in life – he’s never spent a day at school – yet something drives him to take care of his family, to keep his sister safe when his father turns monstrous, to hang onto hope of a better future. Joe and Gary forge an unlikely bond. When Gary finds himself facing a threat greater than he knows how to handle, he turns to Joe – and sets off a chain of events that play out with the brutal inevitability of tragedy and the beauty of a last stab at salvation.
