Due out this August, upcoming British action/thriller Offender is set around the London riots of last summer, and looks like it could be one of the best British films of the year.
Adam got a chance to sit down with director Ron Scalpello and writer/producer Paul Van Carter earlier this year, and the interview with them definitely makes the summer film sound promising.
Revolver have released the first trailer for the film, and its official Facebook has debuted the first posters and new images ahead of its release next month.
“WHEN YOU’VE LOST EVERYTHING… HOW FAR WILL REVENGE TAKE YOU?
Hot new talent Joe Cole ignites a masterpiece of explosive intensity in this powerful action suspense thriller. For Tommy Nix, his girlfriend and unborn child were his entire life, his reason for living. That is until one cruel day when they were brutally torn away, the collateral damage for a ruthless gang who pulled off an armed robbery-murder during the chaos of the London riots.
As the city swelters and burns around him Tommy is left with nothing but rage inside. Launching a one-man-war against those responsible he will stop at nothing, even incarceration, to deliver his own form of blazing justice. A man who has lost everything becomes capable of anything…
THIS SUMMER PREPARE FOR A FIRESTORM OF RELENTLESS VENGEANCE
