Ben Whishaw Has a Breakdown and Goes on a Reckless Journey in Trailer for SURGE
FilmRise has released a trailer for an upcoming thriller titled Surge. It stars Ben Whishaw (Paddington, James Bond) as a man named Joseph who goes on a bold and reckless journey of self-liberation after he has a mental break.
The story is set over 24 hours in London, and Joseph is “trapped in a soulless job, living a life devoid of emotion and meaning. After an impulsive act of rebellion, Joseph unleashes a wilder version of himself. He is propelled on a reckless journey through London, ultimately experiencing what it feels like to be alive.”
As you’ll see in the trailer after Joseph snaps he spirals out of control and embarks on a crime-filled journey as he robs a bank, steals a motorcycle, and goes on the run. This looks like a fast-paced flick!
Surge is directed by Aneil Karia, who also wrote the film with Rupert Jones and Rita Kalnejais. The film also stars Ian Gelder, Jasmine Jobson, and Muna Otaru.
Surge is slated to hit theaters and VOD on September 24th.
