First look at De Palma's latest thriller.
The great American genre filmmakers have always been more appreciated in Europe than in their homeland, and Brian de Palma is no exception.
Rejected by Hollywood, De Palma relocated to Germany for Passion, his 2012 remake of Alain Corneau's 2010 thriller Love Crime.
For his latest, De Palma moves to Denmark for Domino, a political thriller starring Nicolaj Coster-Waldau as a Copenhagen cop who uncovers a CIA conspiracy while investigating the death of his partner in a terrorist attack. The movie also stars Eriq Ebouaney, Carice van Houten, Guy Pearce and Søren Malling.
Domino is in US cinemas and on VOD May 31st. A UK/ROI release has yet to be announced.
Check out the first trailer below.
The official synopsis reads:
In a world wracked by terror and suspicion, Copenhagen police officer, Christian (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau), seeks justice for his partner’s murder by an ISIS member named Imran. On the hunt for the killer, Christian and a fellow cop are unwittingly caught in a cat and mouse chase with a duplicitous CIA agent (Guy Pearce) who is using Imran as a pawn to trap other ISIS members. Soon Christian is racing against the clock – not only seeking revenge, but to save his own life.
