Jared Hess made his name helming the cult classic Napoleon Dynamite, though his more recent output hasn’t garnered the same enthusiasm as his 2004 directorial debut. Today brings us the poster for Hess’ latest, Don Verdean, which stars Sam Rockwell, Jermaine Clement, Amy Ryan, Danny McBride, and Will Forte. Had it not been for the financial problems that have befallen Relativity Media, Don Verdean would’ve been Hess’ second film this year, but his other film Masterminds has been delayed indefinitely.
A trailer for Don Verdean will be hitting the internet next week in anticipation of the Don Verdean‘s release in theaters and on demand starting on December 11th, 2015.
The official synopsis for Don Verdean:
Hired by an ambitious small-town pastor to find sacred relics in the Holy Land, a self-proclaimed Biblical archaeologist comes up short and his attempt to cover up his failure fuels a comic conspiracy from the filmmaking team behind Napoleon Dynamite and Nacho Libre.
