‘Thor’ actor, Chris Hemsworth, has been set to lead the cast for the new submarine thriller, ‘Subversion.’
The thriller centres on a once-promising Naval commander (Hemsworth) who is blackmailed by a cartel-like operation into piloting a dangerous submarine carrying illegal cargo across international waters. Thrust into a high-stakes game of cat and mouse, the man must outmanoeuvre blockades and navigate perilous threats both in and outside of the submarine.
