Here’s some new sales art for Beyond Skyline, the sequel to Colin and Greg Strause’s Skyline that’s directed this time by Liam O’Donnell, who worked on some effects in Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem and Iron Man 2. He co-wrote the screenplay with Joshua Cordes. The duo wrote the first film, too.
The Purge: Anarchy‘s Frank Grillo stars in the film as a detective who embarks on a relentless pursuit to free his son from a nightmarish alien warship.
The film has been at various market over the years, which makes me wonder if anyone will ever pick it up for distribution. With that said, Hydraulx Entertainment is behind Beyond Skyline, and do some seriously badass effects work. It’s possible the many digital effects shots is holding up the finished product.
The full cast includes Frank Grillo, Bojana Novakovic (Drag Me to Hell, Devil), Jonny Weston (Under the Bed, Project Almanac), Iko Uwais, Callan Mulvey, Antonio Fargas, Pamelyn Chee, Yayan Ruhian, Jacob Vargas, Valentine Payen, Betty Gabriel, Jack Chausse, and Kevin O’Donnell.
The sequel’s storyline allegedly takes place at the same time the first one did.
