Jessica Chastain is a gun-wielding country music star in Heartland trailer
The movie arrives on Netflix on November 13.
Netflix's latest thriller, Heartland, offers a unique take on the murder mystery genre by setting its story in the underbelly of Nashville's country music scene. The film, directed by Shana Feste, stars Jessica Chastain as Misty Jones, a legendary country music star who returns to her hometown after 20 years to uncover the truth behind her niece's disappearance.
Misty Jones, known as the "Queen Of Mean," is portrayed as a no-nonsense woman who is determined to solve the mystery before it's too late. In the trailer, we see her resorting to aggressive measures to uncover the truth, including shooting out someone's car windows with a gun and smashing a vehicle's front window with a rock. She also flips off a group of reporters, demonstrating her unapologetic nature.
The film also features Ross Lynch as Charlie Heart, Misty's 22-year-old niece and a rising country musician. Lynch's character warns Misty, "Stop digging, or you'll be missing right alongside her," but Misty is undeterred in her quest for the truth.
According to the official logline, Misty Jones returns to Nashville to investigate the disappearance of her niece, a young country musician. As she digs deeper, she must confront her own past and the seedy underbelly of Nashville, where no one, including herself, is what they seem.
Heartland's soundtrack features original performances from Chastain, Lynch, and other artists, adding to the authenticity of the country music setting. The film, which stars Chastain, Lynch, Garrett Hedlund, Carter Faith, Paul Sparks, Jennifer Nettles, and John Hawkes, is set to release on Netflix on November 13.
