“Man of Steel,” “300” and “Watchmen” director Zack Snyder has announced his next feature – the long-gestating passion project “The Last Photograph”.
Marking Snyder’s first film since the two-part “Rebel Moon” saga for Netflix, Snyder has enlisted two stars from those films – Stuart Martin and Fra Fee – for this project.
The story follows an ex-DEA operative who must return to the mountains of South America in an effort to find his missing niece and nephew, following the brutal murders of their diplomat parents.
Enlisting the help of a washed-up junkie war photographer, the only person to have seen the face of the killers, he sets out, determined to find the children and the truth, but soon learns he must also face the ghosts of his past.
Their journey takes them farther and farther away from civilisation, bringing into question everything they believe, while slowly eroding the distinction between real and surreal.
Production gets underway this month and will shoot through November in Iceland, Colombia and Los Angeles.
Snyder will direct from a screenplay by Kurt Johnstad, with Snyder having a story-by credit. Zack Snyder, Deborah Snyder, Gianni Nunnari and Wesley Coller will produce.
Hans Zimmer, Steven Doar and Omer Benyamin are handling the score for the film, which Snyder dubs a meditation on life and death.
