Starring Rutger Hauer, Stuart Brennan, Emily Booth
Shooting has finally wrapped on Neil Jones’ The Reverend and you can find a trio of new images featuring Stuart Brennan, Tamer Hassan and Emily Booth.
The movie recently wrapped filming in Cardiff, with the director Neil Jones saying he was thrilled with the footage: “It was a tough 5 week shoot, with plenty of night shoots, but the crew were superb and the cast really stepped up to the plate. I’m excited to start the edit and see it come together now, and to have excitement left at this stage; that’s always a good sign.”
Rutger Hauer has taken the role of the Devil in the film, a role that he enjoyed immensely and Neil said he was a pleasure to work with. “There are a few actors that you always look to work with and for me, Rutger was a name at the top of my list. And this role was made for him. He’s an incredible actor and I think what surprised me most about working with him, was his genuine enthusiasm to make the role memorable. He certainly didn’t want to just walk on, perform and leave, he wanted many discussions about how to portray such an iconic role and because of this, I think his performance will be very memorable.”
Synopsis: Fresh from seminary school a new Reverend embarks on his first parish. A small, low maintenance Chapel based in the quiet idyllic setting of a quiet country village. While on the surface the village seems to be a peaceful parish, with perfect residents, soon it becomes apparent that something more sinister lurks beneath the façade of a local businessman. On a wet, cold night a mysterious girl visits The Reverend at the chapel. Cold and upset she is welcomed in warmly, soon it becomes apparent that her visit is not for sanctuary but to deliver a message, a message in the form of a deep, bloody bite… Awoken with an unknown, uncontrollable thirst a confused Reverend can find no evidence of the girl from the night before, with nothing but the thirst and memory of the bite, The Reverend embarks on his mandate, to clean up the village and the neighboring estate, by preaching or feasting.
