Directed by Matt Routledge, the film follows Jason (Justin Tinto) and Rebecca (Alice Eve) as they unravel a conspiracy that threatens global control. Their investigation leads them deep into a web of secrets, culminating in a high-stakes race against time to expose the truth.
The film features a star-studded cast, including Peter Stormare, Steve Berkoff, Julian Glover, and Eddie Hall, with Justin Tinto in his acting debut. Produced by Camelot Films and financed alongside Tinto, The Awakening is currently in post-production, with Tinto, Routledge, and Matt Hookings co-writing the screenplay. Hookings also serves as a producer along with Tim Kent, with executive producers including Tinto, Sally Woodward, Adrian Goodisman, and Patatian.
Producer Kent expressed enthusiasm for the film’s market debut, saying, “We are all extremely excited about Cloud9 Studios set to bring this exciting film to market.” Filmed at the renowned Pinewood Studios, the movie draws on the iconic location’s rich history, adding a layer of intrigue to the already gripping narrative.
Behind the scenes, the film boasts impressive talent, with editor Chris Gill (known for 28 Days Later), cinematographer Laszlo Bille (famous for Blade Runner 2049), and stunt coordinator Luke Tumber (who worked on Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning and Venom: The Last Dance).
Since his acquittal, Spacey has continued to work primarily in European cinema, appearing in projects such as Control and Peter Five Eight.
