Apple will partner with A24 to release the drama film “The Tragedy of Macbeth,” starring Academy Award winners Denzel Washington and Frances McDormand, directed by Academy Award winner Joel Coen. The film will be released in theaters worldwide later this year ahead of a global launch on Apple TV+.
The cast of “The Tragedy of Macbeth” also includes Bertie Carvel, Alex Hassell, Corey Hawkins, Kathryn Hunter, Harry Melling and Brendan Gleeson. The film reunites frequent Coen collaborators including Bruno Delbonnel as the cinematographer, Mary Zophres as costume designer and a score from Carter Burwell. In addition to directing, Coen produces the film alongside McDormand and Robert Graf.
The film is reportedly a black-and-white film based on the tragedy of the same name by William Shakespeare.
