UK Premier of Red Dead Redemption The Man from Blackwater film on Five USA

Red Dead Redemption: The Man from Blackwater will air on June 5th at 11.25pm exclusive on Five USA. The 30 minute short film, created and directed by John Hillcoat (the director of The Proposition and The Road), chronicles a slice-in-time of protagonist John Marston as he tracks down his former fellow outlaw and friend, Bill Williamson. Along the way, Marston encounters many of Red Dead Redemption's eclectic cast of dreamers, misfits and liars.


Using the world of Red Dead Redemption as a virtual film studio and created entirely with in-game assets and technology, John Hillcoat re-imagines Marston's pursuit of justice and salvation.
