Dave Bautista (Guardians of the Galaxy and Dune) is set to star in the upcoming sci-fi dystopian thriller Dreadnought. He is reteaming with his Bushwick directors, Cary Murnion and Jonathan Milott, for the project.
The story centers on “Max (Bautista), whose world was devastated when an alien species crash-landed on Earth, unleashing a deadly plague that claimed his wife and much of humanity.
“In the fragile society that remains, humans have learned to coexist with their extraterrestrial invaders. But for Max, survival isn’t enough.”
“His older daughter, Greta, is dying from the disease. As her body weakens, an alien Sentinel lurks outside their home, drawing nearer and nearer as Greta takes her final breaths.
“This silent, unyielding predator is on a mission to collect her body to fulfill an unstoppable metamorphosis ritual. The government sanctions it. Society accepts it. But Max refuses to have anything else taken from him.”
Producer Basil Iwanyk said in a statement: “Erica and I have been trying to make a movie with Jon and Cary since we saw Bushwick.
“They’re able to create incredible tension, mount some kick-ass action, and create a compelling world without breaking the bank. It’s exactly the kind of filmmakers Thunder Road has succeeded with in the past.”
The movie was written by Joseph Greenberg, and it seems like it will be another good film project for Bautista to take on.
