The final cast has been announced for KILL ME THREE TIMES the new crime thriller from Kriv Stenders (RED DOG). Principal photography began this week in and around Perth and the southwest region of Western Australia with a wonderful cast that includes Simon Pegg, Sullivan Stapleton, Alice Braga, Teresa Palmer, Bryan Brown, Callan Mulvey and Luke Hemsworth.
KILL ME THREE TIMES is an original screenplay by James McFarland and takes place in a sundrenched Australian surfing town, where a young singer, portrayed by Alice Braga, is the thread that binds three tales of murder, blackmail and revenge. Simon Pegg plays a mercurial assassin, who is hired by her wealthy husband (Callan Mulvey), but there is more than one person gunning for her. Sullivan Stapleton has been cast as a gambling addict that attempts to pay off his debts through a risky life insurance scam, whilst Teresa Palmer plays a small town Lady Macbeth who masterminds the scheme. Bryan Brown, a corrupt cop, also tries to get his cut and Luke Hemsworth portrays Braga’s love interest, a local surfer who hopes to rescue the young woman from Pegg’s telescopic sights.
Director Kriv Stenders said:
“I am absolutely thrilled with the dream cast we’ve assembled. It’s a real gift to have so many wonderfully talented and respected actors in one movie. I can’t wait to begin collaborating with them and bring KILL ME THREE TIMES to vivid life.”
With Brit star Simon Pegg adding:
“KILL ME THREE TIMES is a great script and the chance to work with Kriv Stenders in Perth made the whole thing an opportunity I did not want to miss out on.”
It already sounds like a very interesting production and we’ll bring you all the news on KILL ME THREE TIMES as we hear it!
