Director Scott Cooper reteams with Christian Bale (Hostiles) to adapt Louis Bayard’s mystery novel, The Pale Blue Eye.

Set in 1830, Harry Melling plays the young cadet Edgar Allan Poe who is enlisted by Bale’s world-weary detective Augustus Landor to help solve a series of chilling crimes.

A compelling story that reaches into secret societies and the occult, can the two men break the code of silence around the Academy before more bodies pile up?

With an all-star cast that includes a luminous variety of talents including Gillian Anderson, Robert Duvall, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Timothy Spall, Lucy Boynton, and the near ubiquitous Toby Jones – The Pale Blue Eye promises an abundance of riches.

The Pale Blue Eye will stream on Netflix from January 6, 2023
