ESCALATION Kicks Off With George Tchortov And Chris Mark In New Stills!
International sales outfit WTFilms have made available several photos and initial market artwork for Escalation, the new action crime thriller reuniting director James Mark with actors George Tchortov and Chris Mark. The film, which screened for buyers in Berlin in the past week, is produced by Bruno Marino (Enhanced), and also reteams the helmer a fourth time with writer Matthew Nayman, who co-wrote with Brett Caron.
A former police officer puts aside his differences with the force in order to track down his brother’s murderer. He will need to team with a younger detective to bring the case home.
Tchortov, whose credits partly include Paramount+ series “Mayor Of Kingstown” and the CBS series reboot of “McGyver,” previously starred in the former Mark’s second and third features, sci-fi actioner Enhanced with Alanna Bale, and contained sci-fi thriller Control featuring Sara Mitch.
Co-star Mark adds another acting notch to his career belt this year, backed by close to seventeen years in the stunt industry; Mark inaugurated his foray into lead acting territory with the 2017 release, Kill Order, under the stewardship of his brother, James – also an industry stunt professional – for his independent directing debut.
Escalation also stars Cindy Sampson (“Private Eyes”), Nina Kiri (Hulu’s “The Handmaid’s Tale”) and Milton Barnes (“The Hardy Boys”). Check out the gallery below!
