Political dramaWesternWestern comedy
Eddington represents a 2025 satirical neo-Western thriller crafted by Ari Aster who also assumed the directorial role, featuring Joaquin Phoenix, Pedro Pascal, Luke Grimes, Deirdre O'Connell, Micheal Ward, Austin Butler, and Emma Stone in leading roles. This production unfolds in 2020 against the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic and George Floyd demonstrations, depicting the political and social chaos engulfing the imagined town of Eddington, New Mexico through the disputed mayoral race between Sheriff Joe Cross (Phoenix) and Mayor Ted Garcia (Pascal).
The cinematic work debuted at the primary competition screening of the 2025 Cannes Film Festival on May 16, 2025, subsequently opening in cinemas through A24 on July 18, 2025. Critical reception proved divisive, while the film performed poorly commercially, earning merely $13.7 million across global markets.
