At the center of the story is Anthony, played by Bobby Trovato, a rough-edged gambler scraping by in a trailer park. When his naive nephew launches a ludicrous “get rich quick” plan involving a cosmetic surgery, a beach house, and an online girlfriend, Anthony is forced to rekindle an old feud with Shiloh, a ruthless local loan shark. The stakes rise dramatically when Anthony’s other nephew, Lorenzo, falls for Shiloh’s daughter, Jamelia, echoing the classic forbidden romance trope—but with bullets instead of poetry.
The film also stars Jake Skinner, Mitchell Cole, Akira Jackson, and Jerome Cooper, bringing a mix of raw performances and eerie authenticity to the screen. The trailer teases sun-scorched landscapes, tense showdowns, and a brooding atmosphere soaked in rural Americana, while keeping a tight grip on the emotional complexities of loyalty, pride, and family debt gone horribly wrong.
Unlike traditional Shakespeare adaptations, Against the Spread uses the Bard's bones to build a modern, bloodier body. Its characters may not speak in verse, but their motivations—love, money, vengeance—are straight from the Shakespearean playbook. With a strong visual aesthetic and an offbeat tone, the film promises something different for both crime thriller fans and indie cinema enthusiasts.
Set for release soon via Well Go USA, Against the Spread looks poised to deliver a sharp, stylish twist on a classic tale—one where hearts and wallets are equally at risk.
