Fox Searchlight has announced Terrence Malick’s latest film, A Hidden Life, will arrive in theaters on December 13, just in time for awards season.
A Hidden Life also stars Valerie Pachner, Maria Simon, Bruno Ganz, Karin Neuhäuser, Tobias Moretti, Matthias Schoenaerts and Ulrich Matthes.
A Hidden Life stars August Diehl (Inglourious Basterds) as Austrian Franz Jägerstätter, a devoted husband and father who refuses to fight for the Nazis in World War II, even as the possibility of execution threatens to tear him apart from his family.
The film held its World Premiere in competition at the 72nd Festival de Cannes and reunites Malick with Searchlight following the Oscar-nominated Best Picture The Tree of Life, which won the festival’s Palme d’Or in 2011.
