According to a report from Variety, Magnet Releasing has nabbed US rights to Officer Downe, the debut feature from M. Shawn Crahan (Slipknot’s Clown).
The gritty sci-fi film follows a police officer who is repeatedly killed, resurrected, and sent back into the field thanks to some shadowy technology that essentially makes him immortal. It’s an adaptation of a 2010 graphic novel by Joe Casey and Chris Burnham, and stars Kim Coates of Sons Of Anarchy fame. Magnet is the genre arm of Magnolia Pictures.
Officer Downe will debut in theaters and on-demand platforms on November 18th. It plans to tout the film at New York Comic-Con in a few weeks.
