I didn't know anything about the new Dan Stevens-starring sci-fi-action flick KILL SWITCH until a few minutes ago, and now I'm hooked! I need to know more about this film asap.

Turns out the film is the feature debut of director Tim Smit and the flick is based on a short film called WHAT'S IN THE BOX? directed by Smit a few years back. You can check out said short film below along with the awesome trailer for the feature film. Enjoy!

KILL SWITCH synopsis:

Acclaimed writer-director Tim Smit explodes on to the scene with his futuristic, VFX-heavy feature debut! KILL SWITCH charts the story of a pilot battling to save his family and the planet, based on Smit’s short What’s In The Box?

Set in a future version of the world, the video game style plot follows an experiment for unlimited energy, harnessing parallel universes, which goes wrong. Chased by drones and soldiers, pilot and physicist Will Porter must race through an imploding world to get the Redivider box to a tower, which will save humanity, including his family, in the real world.

KILL SWITCH is directed by Tim Smit from a script by Omid Nooshin and C. Kindinger. The flick stars Dan Stevens, Bérénice Marlohe, Tygo Gernandt, and Charity Wakefield.

KILL SWITCH hits Ultra VOD May 19th, in select theaters and On Demand June 16th.
