Quote

From 87North, the bare-knuckle producers of Nobody, John Wick, Atomic Blonde, Deadpool 2, Bullet Train and Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw comes a coal-dark holiday action-comedy that says you should always bet on red.

 

When a team of mercenaries breaks into a wealthy family compound on Christmas Eve, taking everyone inside hostage, the team isn’t prepared for a surprise combatant: Santa Claus (David Harbour, Black Widow, Stranger Things series) is on the grounds, and he’s about to show why this Nick is no saint.

 

The film also stars Emmy winner John Leguizamo (John Wick), Cam Gigandet (Without Remorse), Alex Hassell (Cowboy Bebop), Alexis Louder (The Tomorrow War), Edi Patterson (The Righteous Gemstones) and Beverly D’Angelo (National Lampoon’s Vacation franchise).

 

Directed by razor-edged Norwegian director Tommy Wirkola (Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters, Dead Snow franchise), Violent Night is produced by 87North’s Kelly McCormick David Leitch and Guy Danella. The original screenplay is by Pat Casey & Josh Miller, the writers of Sonic the Hedgehog. The film’s executive producer is Marc S. Fischer.

 

UK release date: 2^nd of December 2022.

Looks epic!

[LeMarchand]

Was wondering when the Christmas film trailers were going to start.

 

Showed this at Château LeMarchand last night, and Mme & Mlle LeMarchand spotted the title and were immediately displeased. It didn't take long for the laughter to start, and Mme LeMarchand is willing to make it a cinema trip now!

I am so going to watch that!

[DeGrimmy]

This looks ridiculous. I'm in.

[Jawloms]

This looks very "Santa, brought to you by the people who made John Wick."

 

 

I really hope this is as good as it looks. Might replace "Die Hard" as my favourite Christmas movie.

"Violent Night" will air on Film4 on Monday, the 1st of December, at 9:00 PM.
