LONDON, UK (Top40 Charts/ Pathe UK) Pathe UK and WWE Studios today announce that they have partnered to co-finance and distribute NO ONE LIVES, written by
David Cohen, and to be directed by visionary genre director Ryuhei Kitamura (THE MIDNIGHT MEAT TRAIN).
The picture stars Luke Evans (THE THREE MUSKETEERS, IMMORTALS, THE RAVEN) and will begin principal photography in New Orleans on June 13th.
The producers are Elton Brand and Harry Knapp for Milk & Media and Kami Naghdi for Constance Media.
A ruthless criminal gang takes a young couple hostage and goes to ground in an abandoned house in the middle of nowhere. When the captive girl is killed, the tables are unexpectedly turned. The gang finds itself outsmarted by an urbane and seasoned killer determined to ensure that no one lives…
