You've got to check out this trailer for an incredible looking film in development called The Last Scout. This is an independent film directed by Simon Phillips, and he made it on a shoestring budget. He is currently trying to raise funds through Indiegogo so that he can finish the VFX and other post-production work. The movie is a sci-fi space thriller, and from what I've seen in this trailer this looks like it could be an incredibly impressive movie for what they've had to work with to make it.

The story takes place in the year 2065, and earth has been destroyed after a nuclear war between the East and the West. It kind of has the same vibe as Christopher Nolan's Interstellar, as mankind is forced to leave earth to try and survive by finding a new home. 

The movie stars Rita Ramnani, Peter Woodward, Simon Phillips, Rebecca Ferdinando,...

Four years ago, it was Alice Creed’s disappearance act that brought one of the most memorable crime-thrillers in recent memory to the big screen. Now production has wrapped on The Disappearance of Lenka Wood, and whilst the two films are related purely in so far as their names are similar, that similarity will somewhat inevitably lead to comparisons in the coming months.

With the New York- and Turkey-set, Taken-esque thriller officially wrapped, the first poster has been released, giving us a look at Petra Bryant making her feature debut as the eponymous Lenka Wood.

A New York couple’s honeymoon in Turkey is turned upside down when the wife is kidnapped. Her ex-military husband has to act quickly, and violently, to get her back alive.

Runaway Features & Press On Features have wrapped on their latest feature in Los Angeles, a Sci-Fi Thriller titled The Last Scout . Paul Tanter penned the script, with Simon Phillips taking to the directors chair. The duo are the creative force behind the UK smash hit White Collar Hooligan and have branched into the Sci-Fi genre.

The film is a futuristic story of a crew of astronauts searching for a new home for humanity after Earth has been devastated by a nuclear war between the East and the West. A four week shoot has just wrapped at Hollywood’s Laurel Canyon stages, where the company built a complete spaceship.

Tanter said: “After filming White Collar Hooligan 2 in New York last year, we’ve been keen to come back to the Us to shoot and this was the perfect vehicle to do so. As Sci-Fi geeks, this is something we’re very...
