On Swift Horses

Well, just about everybody is queer up in here.

The first trailer for On Swift Horses has arrived, and it is delightfully queer.

This 1950s-set film comes from director Daniel Minahan, who executive produced and directed two episodes of Fellow Travelers. It was adapted by Bryce Kass (Lizzie) from the novel of the same name by Shannon Pufahl.

At first glance, it appears the story told here is going to be a love triangle between Lee (Will Poulter), his wife, Muriel (Daisy Edgar-Jones), and Lee’s brother, Julius (Jacob Elordi). We’re treated to stolen glances and furtive hand-touching between Muriel and Julius until the latter leaves town.

And that’s when things start to get gay.

In the trailer, Julius strikes up some sort of romance with Henry (Diego Calva) amidst poker games and explosions. Meanwhile, back in California, Muriel starts going to the racetrack to gamble on horses, and develops a new sapphic romance of her own with a neighbor, Sandra (Sasha Calle).

On Swift Horses promises to be a sweeping romantic drama that Minahan calls a "re-imagining of the American dream." In other words, get seated, 'cause this one's going to be a fun ride.

The film itself doesn't hit theaters until April 25, 2025, in the U.S. But in the meantime, let's check out some of the sapphic moments we were treated to in the trailer.
