It might feel a lot like Christmas, but Will Smith, Joel Edgerton, and Noomi Rapace will be picking up the action this holiday in the Netflix film Bright. In this brand new featurette, the fearless cast of Bright discuss shooting explosive action sequences, including the infamous gas station scene, working with the legendary David Ayer, and how Noomi Rapace is the scariest villain we’ve seen yet. “It’s BIG stars and BIG actions,” says Ayer. From running from LAPD, to amazing fight choreography, Suicide Squad’s director, David Ayer created “crazy entertaining ride” says Joel Edgerton.

Thousands of years after civilization was destroyed by a cataclysmic event, humankind has adapted and a new way of living has evolved. Gigantic moving cities now roam the Earth, ruthlessly preying upon smaller traction towns. Tom Natsworthy (Robert Sheehan)—who hails from a Lower Tier of the great traction city of London—finds himself fighting for his own survival after he encounters the dangerous fugitive Hester Shaw (Hera Hilmar). Two opposites, whose paths should never have crossed, forge an unlikely alliance that is destined to change the course of the future.

Boasting an $80 million budget and based on true events, RENEGADES stars Sullivan Stapleton (TV’s Strike Back, 300: Rise Of An Empire), J.K. Simmons (Whiplash, Patriot’s Day), Ewen Bremner (Wonder Woman, Snowpiercer) and Dimitri Leonidas (TV’s Riviera) in an action-packed adventure perfect for knocking off those post-Christmas cobwebs and guaranteeing you start 2018 with a bang.

In a future where you can change your body like changing clothes, nothing is eternal…except life itself. Explore immortality with Joel Kinnaman and Laeta Kalogridis in this exclusive look at the concept of eternity within the cyberpunk world of ALTERED CARBON where consciousness can be downloaded onto any stack and put into any sleeve, at any time.  Watch the new featurette here, plug into another body, and save a murder!
