Next month, Netflix puts together two of its biggest stars, Charlize Theron and Taron Egerton, in a deadly game of survival. Apex stars Theron as a thrill-seeking woman facing a deadly predator in the harsh Australian wilderness. Turns out that the predator is Egerton, who wants to make her his latest big game prize.
Apex is directed by Baltasar Kormakur, the prolific filmmaker behind a slew of survival thrillers such as The Deep, Everest, Adrift, and Beast. The screenplay is by Jeremy Robbins, best known for his work on The Purge television series.
Theron is already the star of Netflix’s hit action franchise, The Old Guard. Egerton recently starred in the surprisingly awesome thriller Carry-On for the streamer. It makes sense to put these two together, and to keep them under the umbrella.
Erica Bana also has a role in the film, because if it’s an Aussie flick you know he’s not too far away.
SYNOPSIS: A grieving woman testing her limits in the Australian wilderness is suddenly ensnared in a deadly game with a ruthless predator.
Apex hits Netflix on April 24th.
