Lionsgate UK has released new artwork for John Maclean’s new film which is heading to UK & Irish cinemas in the May. The new poster is unveiled as the film has its world premiere at the Opening Gala of the Glasgow Film Festival.
Starring Tim Roth, Jack Lowden, Takehiro Hira and Kōki, ‘Tornado’ was written as well as being directed John Maclean, based on a story by McClean and Kate Leys.
Set in the rugged landscape of 1790’s Britain, Tornado (played by model-songwriter Kōki,) finds herself caught in a perilous situation when she and her father’s travelling puppet show crosses paths with a ruthless criminal gang led by Sugarman (PULP FICTION star Tim Roth) and his ambitious son Little Sugar (SLOW HORSES’ Jack Lowden). In an attempt to create a new life, Tornado seizes the opportunity to steal the gold from the gang’s most recent heist; what follows is a thrilling tale of adrenaline-fueled action as Tornado fights to escape a violent demise.
The film is produced by Leonora Darby, James Harris and Mark Lane and features cinematography by Robbie Ryan and music by Jed Kurzel.
