"The Bikeriders" had its world premiere at the 2023 Telluride Film Festival, where it was initially supposed to be released in theaters by 20th Century Studios. A few months later, the distribution was passed over to Focus Features, and now, almost a full year later and eight years since the release of his last feature film, we finally have a new movie from writer/director Jeff Nichols. One of the most accomplished and beloved storytellers working today, Nichols always manages to find the humanity in his characters as he plunges them into depths of moral complexity set against the backdrop of rural areas and here does so yet again with his biggest budget and cast to date. Making his debut on the Next Best Picture Podcast, Nichols was kind enough to talk with us about his latest film, which you can listen to below. Please be sure to check out the film, which will be released in theaters this weekend from Focus Features. Thank you, and enjoy!
