“Shot Caller” Gets Locked Up On Blu-ray & DVD October 17

Witness a man’s descent down the rabbit hole of the American prison system when the intense crime thriller, “Shot Caller” arrives on Blu-ray™ (plus Digital HD), DVD and Digital HD October 17th from Lionsgate. The film is currently available On Demand. Nikolaj Coster-Waldau stars as a family man sent to prison after a fatal traffic accident. While inside, he joins a gang for protection and becomes more deeply involved in criminal activity. The gritty prison drama’s all-star cast also includes Lake Bell, Jon Bernthal, Emory Cohen, and Benjamin Bratt. From the director of “Snitch” and the producers of “Drive” and “Night Crawler,” the “Shot Caller” Blu-ray and DVD will be available for the suggested retail price of $21.99 and $19.98, respectively.

“Shot Caller” follows the harrowing, often heartrending journey of successful businessman Jacob Harlon (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) who is transformed into Money – a stoic, ruthless prison gangster – after a DUI sends him down the rabbit hole of the American prison system. As he navigates the brutality of his new home, adapting to its violent codes of ethics and rites of passage that will ensure his survival, he slowly loses his previous identity and his relationship to his former life, including his wife and son. The grip of his new family, the prison gang, extends beyond the prison walls. Upon his release, chased by law enforcement and threatened by his incarcerated “protectors,” Money must orchestrate one last dangerous crime. All is not what it seems. The ruthless process of fulfilling his obligations also becomes his path to sacrifice, retribution, and self-definition.
