The film, written and directed by Josh Trank of Chronicle (2012) fame and Fantastic Four (2015) infamy, focuses on “the untold story” of Capone later in his life. Trank has announced on Twitter the day before that “my cut” of the movie will be coming out May 12, and later said “planned as theatrical, but hopefully will be on the big screen later this year!”

Tom Hardy’s performance in the trailer is undoubtedly its biggest selling point for those who aren’t history buffs, as the actor has gained lots of clout in movies from Inception and Mad Max: Fury Road to Venom.
It’s unclear when movie theaters will be re-opened in the United States, but it could be as soon as two weeks given the Trump Administration’s new federal guidelines. Until then, watching films like Capone from home is the way to practice safe social distancing.
Capone will be released May 12 on streaming.
