A24’s Eddington will being streaming on HBO Max on November 14 before debuting on HBO linear on November 15 at 8pm ET.

Written and directed by Ari Aster (Midsommar, Hereditary), the satirical contemporary western set against the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic stars Joaquin Phoenix and Pedro Pascal.

In May of 2020, a standoff between a small-town sheriff (Phoenix) and mayor (Pascal) sparks a powder keg as neighbor is pitted against neighbor in Eddington, New Mexico.

Luke Grimes, Deirdre O’Connell, Micheal Ward, Amélie Hoeferle, Clifton Collins Jr., William Belleau, Austin Butler, and Emma Stone round out the cast.

Meagan Navarro wrote in her review, “Eddington makes you sit with the discomforting tour down memory lane, just dialed up to violent, satirical excess. That it feels like it’s punching down in its pitch-black observations only further frustrates. Aster’s latest winds up feeling like empty provocation for provocation’s sake, and not much else.”
