At the turn of the 20th century, 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 greedy and dangerous white interlopers, who were entitled to nothing and thought themselves worthy of everything. Based on a true story and told through the improbable romance of Ernest Burkhart (Leonardo DiCaprio) and Mollie Kyle (Lily Gladstone), Killers is an epic western crime saga, where real love crosses paths with unspeakable betrayal. 

Adapted from David Grann's bestselling book, this tale of murder and heartbreak also features an incredible performance by Robert De Niro and strong supporting turns by Jesse Plemons, Tantoo Cardinal, Brendan Fraser, John Lithgow, Cara Jade Myers, JaNae Collins and Jillian Dion.
