Here’s some news on a brand new action-thriller led by Sean Stone, Eric Roberts and Mickey Rourke, Night Walk, which Lionsgate will start to roll out from 15th June (US). The film is written and directed by Aziz Tazi, and is described as a modern-day Romeo and Juliet, where star-crossed lovers are torn apart by cultural tensions between the East and the West. The late Tommy ‘Tiny’ Lister, as well as Louis Mandylor, and Sarah Alami round out the cast.
We have the official synopsis for the film which is as follows.
Mickey Rourke stars in this gritty action-thriller about one man’s quest for justice. It starts as Frank, an American, visits the Middle East with his girlfriend, Sarah. But when Sarah is killed in a police incident, Frank is framed for her murder and sent to a prison in the U.S. Then, after uncovering the conspiracy that led to Frank’s sentence, his friend dies mysteriously. Now, seeking bloody justice, Frank plans to escape from prison – but must partner with a dangerous gang to do so.
This looks interesting. No news on release dates in other territories, but North America will get the film on digital and on demand from 15th June.
Here’s the trailer.
