Upcoming post-apocalyptic sci-fi thriller Fallout - not to be confused with the video game adaptation of the same name that's also in the works - has announced its cast.
Deadline reports that Katie Cassidy (Arrow), Devon Sawa (Gasoline Alley), Chris Backus (Mindhunter), Kate Bosworth (The Enforcer), and Tyrese Gibson (Fast & The Furious) have all joined the production, which is currently shooting in New Jersey.
The film "charts the fallout when a nuclear threat forces six people into a malfunctioning underground bunker. Tensions soon rise as they fight to stay alive. With oxygen and the trust in each other quickly running out, they learn that a more sinister plan is afoot."
Cecil Chambers (Awol-72) will direct, and also penned the script along with Michael Miceli (The Bounty Hunter). Saleem Elmasri, John Marques, Waynard Schmidt, and Andrea Bucko will serve as executive producers.
“Fallout’s tense, urgent script is what first attracted us to this project,“ Benaroya Pictures CEO and IFT Founder Michael Benaroya said, “and the cast that has joined the film really speaks to this. We’re excited to work with this strong ensemble that will resonate with distributors worldwide.”
