Oscar winner Christian Bale is reuniting with Out of the Furnace writer/director Scott Cooper for a new film entitled Hostiles. The latest team up between the actor and filmmaker will be a western, a genre Bale is familiar with as he previously starred in the 2007 remake of 3:10 to Yuma.

Check out the official plot synopsis for Hostiles below:

“Set in 1892, Hostiles tells the story of a legendary Army captain, who after stern resistance, begrudgingly agrees to escort a dying Cheyenne war chief and his family back to tribal lands. Making the harrowing and perilous journey from an isolated Army outpost in New Mexico to the grasslands of Montana, the former rivals encounter a young widow whose family was murdered on the plains. Together, they must join forces to overcome the punishing landscape and hostile Comanche tribes that they encounter along the way.”

With filming starting in July, Hostiles is being produced by Cooper, Ken Kao, and John Lesher of Black Mass.
