Champion Road and Call Me King director R.L. Scott is finally getting its day with an official announcement for his newest dark superhero crime thriller, Lazarus. The news comes just as Scott works toward finishing up on Bora, a seductive new psychological road thriller that filmed last year amid lockdown safety protocols in California.
It almost feels like a lifetime since any of us have heard from director R.L. Scott since the ceremony of his 2016 action drama, Call Me King. For all intents and purposes however, Scott is back and re-entering the fray and with every intent to present his creative evolution on a more ambitious storytelling template.
Plot details remain nil at the moment for Call Me King helmer, writer and director R.L. Scott’s new movie, Lazarus. That said, it’s been just shy of a year since we shared exclusive stills of the new ultra violent superhero thriller hailing from Shadow Motion Pictures and OverDog Entertainment.
That kind of profusion left questions regarding any teaser or trailer footage that may arise, and so this week, a brand new teaser trailer announcement has arrived to satisfy the curiosity. It’s brief, brisk, but presents something equally slick and edgy and worth every bit of attention you can lend if you love action cinema grounded in stark, visceral brutality pound-for-pound.
Sean Riggs (Stomp The Yard) leads the cast with a story centered on a super powered vigilante in his one-man war on an organization to free the city from darkness. Also starring are Costas Mandylor (The Saw Trilogy), Noel Gugliemi (Training Day), Shane Brolly (Underworld), Aeriél Miranda (Straight Outta Compton), R&B superstar Mya, Christina Wren (Man Of Steel, Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice), Adamo Palladino (Girls of Sunset Place), Kevin Lukata (Call Me King), Shaun Mixon, Andre “Chyna” Mccoy (The Matrix, Kung Fu Man), Linc Hand (42), Damian T. Raven, Sam Puefua (Hawaii Five-0), Johnny Alexander and Stephen “Stevo” Jones (Step Up-All In).
A full trailer is expected to emerge sometime in June. Check out the announcement below and stay tuned for more info!
