Martin Scorsese, as he reteams with frequent collaborators Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro. Drawing from David Grann's no-fiction novel ‘Killers of the Flower Moon: The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI,' the film serves as a sordid illustration surrounding the Osage Murders in Oklahoma in the early 1920s, which saw Native Americans getting killed for access to their oil-rich lands. It is also billed as Apple's most expensive film to date, budgeted at $200 million (about Rs. 1,649 crore).

The trailer for De Niro), Ernest's villainous uncle, says upon arriving in the new land. “The land had oil on it. Black gold.” The idyllic lifestyle of the Osage is soon threatened when more greedy Caucasian men and women arrive, looking to turn a profit from the oil deposits.

Now as it happens, Ernest ended up marrying Mollie, causing him to struggle with conflicting loyalties, as his uncle prepares to claim all the wealth from the land through whatever means possible. The killings begin, erupting into street-wide riots and robberies, all playing to the tune of ‘Jesse Plemons), uncovering a larger conspiracy that involves uncle Hale hiring hitmen to do his foul deeds. Mollie's family is also dead, and in such times of misery seeks from her husband Ernest for vengeance, who himself is — quite literally — held under the firm grasp of his ruthless uncle.

“Expecting a miracle to make this all go away… You know they don't happen anymore” Hale tells a scared and teary-eyed Ernest, as he's forced to pick a side. The Killers of the Flower Moon trailer also offered a brief glimpse of lawyer W. S. Hamilton (The Last of Us) as Hale's other nephew Bryan Burkhart, who was implicated in the crimes.

Killers of the Flower Moon is scheduled to drop October 6 in limited theatres, followed by a wider release on October 20. Currently, there is no word on whether it will arrive in Indian theatres, though it will very likely show up on Apple TV+ at an undisclosed, later date.
