Headshot stars Iko Uwais (The Raid) and follows him as an amnesiac that tries to remember his past while being nursed to health by a doctor, played by Chelsea Islan (3 Srikandi, Street Society). The film has been acquired by XYZ films and it plans to give the film a limited theatrical release in North America, before it receives a global VOD release.
Headshot comes from the Mo Brothers; Timo Tjahjanto and Kimo Stamboel, who directed the fantastic crime-thriller Killers in 2014. Tjahjanto also co-directed the VHS 2 segment ‘Safe Haven’ and the icky ABCs of Death segment ‘L is for Libido’.
They are a couple of exciting film-makers, so we’re looking forward to seeing what awesome action Headshot brings. You can get a taste of it in the trailer below.
