Dubai-based distribution and production outfit Oceana Studios has picked up worldwide sales rights to thriller “Tonic,” starring Billy Blair (“Doc Holliday”) and Ed Westwick (“Gossip Girl”).

Written and directed by Derek Presley (“Boon”) and produced by U.S. production company Muscular Puppy, the film follows Sebastian Poe (Blair), a washed-up piano player performing across seedy jazz bars who ends up making a murderous deal with corrupt local police officer Terry Rush (Jason Coviello) to repay a drug debt. Over the course of one night, Sebastian is plunged into the dark streets of Dallas’ Deep Ellum district where he comes across an odd assortment of characters. Westwick plays Stanley Roberson, a ruthless and shady figure whom Sebastian is tasked with assassinating. The film also stars Lori Petty (“You’re All Gonna Die”) as Sebastian’s sister Elise Poe.

The film was shot earlier this year in Deep Ellum, a historical district of Dallas.
