THE HERO will have its SXSW premiere tonight at 9:30pm CST in the Zach Theater. Lee Hayden ( Sam Elliott ) is an aging Western icon with a golden voice, but his best performances are decades behind him. He spends his days reliving old glories and smoking too much weed with his former-co-star-turned-dealer, Jeremy ( Nick Offerman ), until a surprise cancer diagnosis brings his priorities into sharp focus. He soon strikes up an exciting, contentious relationship with stand-up comic Charlotte ( Laura Prepon ), and he attempts to reconnect with his estranged daughter, Lucy ( Krysten Ritter ), all while searching for one final role to cement his legacy. The Orchard will release THE HERO in NY/LA June 9 followed by a national rollout in June/July. Please Leave A Comment-
