Synopsis

Macbeth (Sam Worthington), who’s unwaveringly loyal to his crime boss, Duncan (Gary Sweet), is told by teenage witches that he will one day amass great power. Driven by their prophecy, he plots Duncan’s murder with his wife and assumes the leadership of the gang for himself. Maintaining his power will require more murders and violence, finally driving his surviving enemies to unite and destroy him.

Sam Worthington (SOMERSAULT) plays the troubled Macbeth in this sexy, bloody, modern day adaptation of a Shakespeare classic by acclaimed Australian director Geoffrey Wright (ROMPER STOMPER)
