His latest film, ‘Dead Man’s Wire,’ was directed by Gus Van Sant, and inspired by a true 1977 hostage crisis. Bill takes on the role of Tony Kiritsis, a desperate Indianapolis man who, pushed to the brink by financial ruin, takes a mortgage executive hostage with a shotgun wired to both their necks — turning his standoff into a tense, 63-hour spectacle that captivated a nation. With its authentic 1970s atmosphere, media frenzy dynamics, and standout supporting cast including Dacre Montgomery, Colman Domingo, and Al Pacino, the film blends character study and social commentary into a thought-provoking, that will have audiences on the edge of their seats.Houston will be BELOW FREEZING again Tuesday morning!Cold weather is still hitting the Houston area this morningIcy Roads at Lake Conroe This Morning | Don’t Drive Unless NecessaryWater spewing into air after water main break during Houston winter stormBig topics from Houston Mayor's winter storm press conferenceHouston Weather Update: Tracking Changes Throughout the DayHow to take care of your pool in freezing weather
