Screen Rant exclusively debuts the trailer and poster for the upcoming Civil War-era set western action-adventure film Hostile Territory. It was announced earlier this year that Saban Films had purchased the North American distribution rights to the film. The movie, which was previously titled The Orphan Train, had some setbacks due to the COVID pandemic.
Inspired by a true story, Hostile Territory follows former P.O.W. Jack Calgrove (Brian Presley), who moves Heaven and Earth to be reunited with his children following the Civil War. After returning home, Jack discovers that his wife has tragically died and his children, presumed to be orphans, are heading deep into the West on a train crossing enemy lines, with the intent of being placed into new homes. Calgrove and another soldier team up with a troop of Native American sharpshooters and a freed slave as they try to stop the train. The film also stars Matt McCoy (The Hand that Rocks the Cradle, Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan), Brea Bee (Silver Linings Playbook), Brad Leland (Deepwater Horizon), Lew Temple (The Devil’s Rejects), and Craig Tate (King Richard).
