XYZ Films has released the first photo and synopsis from “Apostle,” the new film from “The Raid” director Gareth Evans.
Dan Stevens stars in the film as Thomas Richardson, a man who travels to a remote island in 1905 to rescue his sister after she has been kidnapped by a strange religious cult demanding ransom for her return.
It quickly becomes clear the cult will regret the day it took her, as he digs deeper into the secrets and lies upon which the commune is built.
Michael Sheen, Lucy Boynton, Mark Lewis Jones, Bill Milner, Kristine Froseth, and Paul Higgins also star in the film which has yet to set a release date and likely won’t hit until sometime next year.
