"Rex is an uber-macho hunter who, together with four equally testosterone-addled buddies, embarks on a hunting trip in the Canadian wilderness. But their weekend is cut short by a rival band of hunters they encounter in the forest, one of whom inexplicably takes a potshot at Rex's party and grazes the head of one of his buddies. From there Rex and company scurry off and head back to civilisation."
Apple TV+ pulled French drama The Hunt, originally scheduled for 3 December, after accusations that it bears similarities to the 1976 film adaptation Shoot. The Hunt stars Benoit Magimel and Melanie Laurent. Press releases and official trailers were removed from Apple's site. Production company Gaumont announced a temporary postponement and said a thorough review is underway, stressing that intellectual property matters are taken very seriously. The Hunt follows Franck and his longtime friends who are stalked by a rival group of hunters after a weekend trip. Shoot, written by Douglas Fairbairn and adapted into a US/Canadian film, involves a hunting party pursued after a deadly confrontation.
