The Anomaly hits theaters and Digital HD on September 25
Ryan Reeve has a problem. After successfully escaping from his kidnappers, he is trying to uncover why some people want him dead. The complication? He can’t spend more than 9 minutes and 47 seconds trying to solve this deadly puzzle.
Starring Ian Somerhalder (“The Vampire Dairies”), Alexis Knapp (Pitch Perfect 1 and 2, Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief), Art Parkinson (San Andreas), Luke Hemsworth (Infini) and Brian Cox (X-Men 2, Troy), The Anomaly is directed by genre favorite Noel Clarke (Star Trek Into Darkness, “Doctor Who”) and written by Simon Lewis.
Traumatized ex-soldier Reeve (Clarke) wakes up in the back of a moving van alongside a young boy (Parkinson) held prisoner. But after helping the boy escape, he comes to the terrifying conclusion that he’s the kidnapper. Even more startling, five years have passed since he was last awake. Ryan soon learns that he’s caught up in a futuristic conspiracy known as “Anomaly,” Ryan’s only connection with reality is the dogged pursuit of Ryan by the elegant but sinister Harkin Langham (Somerhalder), who – when he’s not trying to kill Ryan – explains how to survive his blackouts, lasting exactly 9 minutes and 47 seconds.
As he negotiates switching between parallel universes, Ryan teams up with the mysterious “Dana” (Knapp) to start unraveling the life-threatening mystery in which he’s the explosive center. With Harkin dogging and thwarting his every turn, Ryan must summon all his will to challenge his programmed destiny and regain his humanity.
The Anomaly is produced by UK indie powerhouse companies Unstoppable Entertainment and The Tea Shop and Film Company.
