XYZ Films Acquires Screenlife Thriller ‘Resurrected’ From ‘Missing’ EP Timur Bekmambetov
deadline.comEXCLUSIVE: XYZ Films has secured North American rights to the sci-fi thriller Resurrected, starring The Vigil‘s Dave Davis, from international sales agent Pulsar Content.
Plans for the film’s release have not yet been disclosed. Produced by Timur Bekmambetov’s Bazelevs, the company behind such titles as Searching and Wanted, Resurrected is set in a near future where the Catholic Church has found the secret to resurrection.
They only grant a second life, however, to sinless believers under 65. Our protagonist Stanley (Davis), whose son was the first to be resurrected, finds the awful conspiracy behind the secret to eternal life, and now the Church will stop at nothing to prevent him from exposing the truth.
Egor Baranov (Netflix’s S’parta) directed the pic, which was co-produced with France’s Logical Pictures (The Deep House), in association with Pulsar Content.
