“House of Cards” star Robin Wright is transferring her directing skills from TV to the big screen with her latest project, “Land.”
On Monday, Focus Features released the harrowing trailer for Wright’s feature directorial debut, which stars the actress as Edee Mathis, a woman who suffers great personal loss and leaves her life behind to battle the elements in Wyoming’s unforgiving wilderness.
“It’s really difficult to be around people because they just want me to be better,” Edee tells her therapist before jetting off to the great outdoors.
Also starring Demián Bichir, Sarah Dawn Pledge and Kim Dickens, “Land” is set to premiere at the 2021 Sundance Film Festival, which will operate during the pandemic from Jan. 28 to Feb. 3 as a mix of virtual and drive-in screenings held in Los Angeles (as opposed to Sundance’s typical Park City, Utah, headquarters).
