‘Divinity’ – Sci-fi Thriller Produced by Steven Soderbergh Gets October Release Date
A retro sci-fi thriller that’s Executive Produced by Steven Soderbergh, Divinity recently premiered at Sundance, and distributors Utopia and Sumerian have now set a release date.
First reported by Deadline, Divinity will be released in theaters on October 13.
Utopia partnered with Sumerian to acquire the film out of Sundance.
Utopia and Sumerian said of their partnership, “Our worlds collided when falling in love with Eddie’s film and vision for Divinity. The film represents a cultural crossroads of film, music, fashion and art. We believe that this partnership represents the beginning of a new era where stories can live on screen and off the screen by blurring the lines between a film itself and the integral components that compose a film’s DNA.”
Eddie Alcazar wrote and directed Divinity. Here’s the plot synopsis…
Set in an otherworldly human existence, scientist Sterling Pierce (Scott Bakula) dedicated his life to the quest for immortality, slowly creating the building blocks of a groundbreaking serum named “Divinity.” Jaxxon Pierce (Stephen Dorff), his son, now controls and manufactures his father’s once-benevolent dream.
Society on this barren planet has been entirely perverted by the supremacy of the drug, whose true origins are shrouded in mystery. Two mysterious brothers (Moises Arias and Jason Genao) arrive with a plan to abduct the mogul, and with the help of a seductive woman named Nikita (Karrueche Tran), they will be set on a path hurtling toward true immortality.
Bella Thorne also stars in the film, featuring music by DJ Muggs and Dean Hurley.
