A new trailer to the History Channel’s mini-series TEXAS RISING looks like a bloodbath. The new series covers the violent history between Texas and Mexico when General Santa Anna (Olivier Martinez) vowed to personally take back Texas in 1836 with his army. TEXAS RISING stars Bill Paxton, Brendan Fraser, Ray Liotta, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Olivier Martínez, Thomas Jane, Chad Michael Murray, Max Thieriot and other familiar faces.
Directed by Roland Joffé (The Killing Fields, The Mission), TEXAS RISING begins airing May 25 over five nights. Olivier Martinez plays the brutal general as President Antonio López de Santa Anna and Bill Paxton leads the Texans in the fight against his army.
