Tessa Thompson (Thor: Love and thunder) And Joseph Gordon-Levitt (Super pumped) will star in an upcoming sci-fi thriller titled Ash. The film is produced by Neill Blomkamp (District 9) and directed by Grammy-winning musician and director Flying Lotus aka Steven Ellison.
The new film centers on a woman (Thompson) who “wakes up on a distant planet to find her space station crew brutally killed, and must then decide whether she can trust the man (Gordon-Levitt) sent to rescue her. But as their investigation of what happened sets a terrifying chain of events in motion, she begins to wonder just how innocent she really is.
This looks like a great project for both of these talented actors. The film is produced by XYZ Films and the screenplay was written by Jonni Remmlerand will go into production in New Zealand next year.
Flying Lotus, who will also create the film’s soundtrack, said, “It’s an absolute dream come true to collaborate with some of the most talented actors out there!”
GFC founder and CEO Matthew Metcalfe and XYZ Films Partner Nate Bolotin added: “We couldn’t be happier for Tessa and Joseph as the headliner of this film, they are both incredibly talented and gifted actors. With Steve at the helm, this will be a truly visionary film and we couldn’t be more excited to bring the project into production in 2023. “
