Both Netflix and Blumhouse Productions have exited filmmaker Lexi Alexander’s violent, post-apocalyptic martial arts drama “Absolute Dominion”.
Blumhouse was set to produce and Netflix to distribute the film earlier this year, and there’s no given reason as to why both companies have suddenly left the project, which has already wrapped filming. Alexander herself, however, makes it clear on Twitter that “Don’t worry, it’s not bad news.”
Alex Winter, Patton Oswalt, Fabiano Viett, Julie Ann Emery, Andy Allo, Alok Vaid-Menon and newcomer Désiré Mia star in the film, which begins in 2085 after the world has been destroyed by religious warfare.
Desperate to save humanity, global governing forces host a gripping, no-holds-barred, martial arts tournament. The last fighter standing wins Absolute Dominion for one faith.
The filmmaking team is seeking new distribution for the project, which was shot this spring in Nevada and is currently in post-production.
