Early One Sheet Art and Long Synopsis for ‘Dolan’s Cadillac’
Beyond the break you can check out a long synopsis and some early teaser art for Erik Canuel’s Dolan’s Cadillac, the latest Stephen King adaptation. The thriller is a thriller about a man (Wes Bentley), who plots to avenge the murder of his wife (Emmanuelle Vaugier) by notorious and untouchable Las Vegas mob boss Jimmy Dolan (Christian Slater).

Based on one of Stephen King’s most intense short stories, Dolan’s Cadillac is a suspense thriller in the vein of The Dead Zone and The Secret Window.
Tom Robinson is a peaceful, law-abiding school teacher. When his bride Elizabeth accidentally witnesses a murder, he finds himself on a road straight to hell. The killer is James Dolan, Las Vega’s most ruthless and untouchable mob boss. Elizabeth agrees to testify against him and soon we find out just why Dolan has remained untouched. Anyone who dares to go up against him faces deadly consequences. In Elizabeth’s case, it’s a bomb strapped to the bottom of a car.
Devastated by her death, Robinson tries all the legal channels at his disposal to bring Dolan to justice. But without hard evidence, Dolan remains free, able to run his empire seemingly untouchable. Frustrated and alone, Robinson begins to receive “visits” from his dead wife urging him to seek revenge. Is Elizabeth really reaching beyond the grave, or has he begun his slow decent into insanity? Robinson continues to hear the voices and is driven to construct his own plan — an elaborate and perilous one-in-a-million shot.
Joining a dangerous road construction crew of ex-convicts, he battles the heat and dangers of the Nevada desert working by day, and at night trying to infiltrate Dolan’s underworld. Haunted by the ghost of wife, Robinson transforms himself into an obsessed vengeance machine, pushing himself beyond the breaking point of mind, body and spirit.
When the two men finally meet deep in the heart of the desert, Dolan’s Cadillac climaxes with an amazing test of wills – the ultimate duel in the sun. The Cadillac, which has been Dolan’s armor, may likely become his tomb.
This is Vengeance, Stephen King Style.
The Wayans are out to cancel the Cancel Culture with Scary Movie, and the cast assures it will do just that.
“They sort of have an across-the-board style,” Anna Faris tells EW. “It’s always been a part of the Wayans Brothers, their electricity. ‘Can we offend you? Will you still love us? Come on, you still love us, don’t you?'”
Regina Hall concurs, promising the “boundary-pushing” sixth installment in the horror parody franchise will “offend everyone.”
EW has shared a batch of behind-the-scenes images from Scary Movie, which hits theaters June 5 via Paramount.
Faris and Hall are joined by fellow franchise favorites Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, Dave Sheridan, Lochlyn Munro, Cheri Oteri, Chris Elliott, and Jon Abrahams in the legacy sequel.
The ensemble includes Damon Wayans Jr., Gregg Wayans, Kim Wayans, Benny Zielke, Cameron Scott Roberts, Heidi Gardner, Olivia Rose Keegan, Ruby Snowber, Savannah Lee Nassif, Sydney Park, Kenan Thompson, and Felissa Rose.
Michael Tiddes (A Haunted House) directs from a script by Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, original Scary Movie director Keenen Ivory Wayans, Craig Wayans (Scary Movie 2), and Rick Alvarez (A Haunted House).
The film will slash through reboots, remakes, requels, prequels, sequels, spin-offs, elevated horror, origin stories, anything with the word legacy in it, and every “final chapter” that absolutely isn’t final.
Scary Movie launched in 2000, followed by Scary Movie 2 in 2001. The Wayans’ involvement ended there, but the series continued with 2003’s Scary Movie 3, 2006’s Scary Movie 4, and 2013’s Scary Movie 5.
