A new clip from Saban Films‘ Butcher’s Crossing sees Nicolas Cage become an intense, bald buffalo hunter.

Shared with Collider, Saban Films posted a new clip from Butcher’s Crossing, an upcoming western directed by Gabe Polsky. The footage sees Cage tell a character played by Fred Hechinger a story about how he once discovered a valley full of thousands and thousands of buffalo.

“Academy Award winner Nicolas Cage (1996, Best Actor, Leaving Las Vegas) stars in a gritty story about buffalo hunters in the Old West,” the official synopsis reads. “Will Andrews (Fred Hechinger) has left Harvard to find adventure. He teams up with Miller (Cage), a mysterious frontiersman offering an unprecedented number of buffalo pelts in a secluded valley. Their crew must survive an arduous journey where the harsh elements will test everyone’s resolve, leaving their sanity on a knife’s edge.”

Based on a 1960 novel of the same name by John Edward, Butcher’s Crossing is directed and co-written by Polsky, who previously made a number of sports documentaries, including 2014’s Red Army, 2018’s In Search of Greatness, and 2019’s Red Penguins.
