Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon is set to premiere on Apple TV+ on January 12


Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon is set at the turn of the 20th century, when oil brought a fortune to the Osage Nation, who became some of the richest people in the world overnight. The wealth of these Native Americans immediately attracted white interlopers, who manipulated, extorted and stole 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. Also starring Robert De Niro and Jesse Plemons, Killers of the Flower Moon is directed by Scorsese from a screenplay by Eric Roth and Martin Scorsese, based on David Grann’s bestselling book.



Momentum around the Apple Original Films slate has continued to grow since the debut of Apple TV+ just over four years ago. In addition to Apple making history as the first streaming service to land the Academy Award for Best Picture with CODA, Apple Original Film The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse also earned the Academy Award for Best Animated Short.

Highly anticipated Apple Original Films include the star-studded spy thriller Argylle, with Henry Cavill, Sam Rockwell, Bryce Dallas Howard, Bryan Cranston, Catherine O’Hara, John Cena, Dua Lipa, Ariana DeBose and Samuel L. Jackson; The Instigators an upcoming feature starring Academy Award-winners Matt Damon and Casey Affleck, directed by Doug Liman, and produced by Damon and Ben Affleck, Jeff Robinov, John Graham and Kevin Walsh; Blitz, from Academy Award-winning filmmaker Sir Steve McQueen; and an untitled Formula 1 feature film starring Brad Pitt from director Joseph Kosinski and producer Jerry Bruckheimer, and more.
