The Duel Directors on Breaking Down Friendship & Masculinity with Great New Film
Aug 1, 2024
Co-directors/filmmakers Justin Matthews & Luke Spencer Roberts spoke with MovieWeb’s Julian Roman about their film with Dylan Sprouse and Callan McAuliffe. They discussed its careful tonal shifts and rich themes. The Duel was in theaters for one night only July 31, 2024, but will have a VOD release through Lionsgate.
Upon discovering that his best friend, Colin (Sprouse), has been having an affair with his girlfriend, Woody (Mcauliffe) decides that no modern form of revenge could possibly satisfy him. Instead, Woody challenges his closest companion to a classic contest of honor – a gentleman’s duel to the death. When two of their friends join the act, the once inseparable group of men inch closer to the day of destiny and test the bonds of their relationship until the moment of no return.
