Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Director Travis Mills shot 12 feature Westerns in 2020 as part of 'The 12 Westerns in 12 Months' project, completing principal photography on Texas Red in just five days during peak pandemic restrictions.
The real Texas Red was hunted by hundreds in 1900 Mississippi after killing a white man; this film joins a sparse cinematic tradition of reclaiming Black outlaw narratives from erasure.
