IMPERIUM Trailer and Poster: Daniel Radcliffe Goes Undercover as a White Supremacist
With Green Room coming out earlier this year and now this trailer for Imperium, it looks like white supremacists are having a bit of a resurgence on the big screen right now. Sure, there were KKK rallies in movies like Bad Boys 2, Django Unchained, and O Brother Where Art Thou?, but before Green Room, the last time a movie really dove headfirst into that world was what, American History X? Either way, Daniel Radcliffe continues to take on projects that allow him to stretch his acting muscles and distance himself from Harry Potter, and I'm guessing he'll have to either witness or partake in some seriously messed up stuff in this true story as he plays an FBI informant who goes undercover to infiltrate a hate group.
Imperium hits theaters and On Demand on August 19, 2016.
Nate Foster (Daniel Radcliffe), a young, idealistic FBI agent, goes undercover to take down a radical right-wing terrorist group. The bright up-and-coming analyst must confront the challenge of sticking to a new identity while maintaining his real principles as he navigates the dangerous underworld of white supremacy. Inspired by real events, IMPERIUM stars Daniel Radcliffe, Toni Collette, Tracy Letts, with Nestor Carbonell, Burn Gorman and Sam Trammell and will be released by Lionsgate Premiere in theaters and on demand August 19.
