A Love Of The Fury: A Conversation With Director Jesse V. Johnson

Jesse V. Johnson loves cinema. Working in various levels of film productions since the early 1990s, the English-born filmmaker first made his name as a stunt performer working on such high profile projects as the original TOTAL RECALL, STARSHIP TROOPERS, WAR OF THE WORLDS, and dozens more. This led to Johnson being a stunt coordinator, a second unit director, and eventually an accomplished feature director. Staying true to his stunt background, the films Johnson has directed are action-packed affairs such as THE DEBT COLLECTOR, TRIPLE THREAT, and AVENGEMENT (to name just a few) that value practical effects and physical performers more than expensive CGI-laden spectacle.

AVENGEMENT: Scott Adkins Goes To Prison In New Set Photos And Stills

Production is already underway for Jesse Johnson’s entry next in Scott Adkins action film fandom Avengement, and both star and director have just featured the latest look at our protagonist in two new photos from the set. Judging by the overall look, costumes and hashtags, the new thriller sounds much like it’ll be in a prison/escape setting to foundate the plot, telling of Cain Burgess, a lowly criminal who sets out to his old stomping grounds to get even with the people who made him a cold-hearted killer.
