You had me at Liev Schreiber! There’s a new video featuring director Ruairi Robinson and actress Olivia Williams talking their latest flick, THE LAST DAYS ON MARS, and in it they go into some detail on the upcoming thriller and it sounds like a kick ass flick so far. Above all of these words and stuff is the film’s very first still featuring the always badass Schreiber in a space suit staring at some red stuff.
Previously titled THE ANIMATORS, THE LAST DAYS ON MARS is being produced by Qwerty Films’ Michael Kuhn and Andrea Cornwall and stars Liev Schreiber, Olivia Williams, Romola Garai, Elias Koteas, Tom Cullen, Goran Kostic, and Johnny Harris.
THE LAST DAYS ON MARS follows the story of an astronaut crew on Mars on the verge of a major breakthrough, having collected rock specimens that reveal microscopic evidence of life. In their last hours on the planet, two astronauts go back to a cavernous valley on the surface of Mars to collect further evidence for their discovery, but a routine excavation turns deadly when one of them falls to his death and his body is taken as a host and re-animated by the very life form they sought to discover.
