Watch the sci-fi short Code 8 from Robbie and Stephen Amell

March 27, 2016 by Gary Collinson

Earlier this month Arrow star Stephen Amell shared a mysterious teaser for a sci-fi project called Code 8, which he’s produced alongside his cousin Robbie Amell, who also stars. Well, it turns out the trailer was for a short film, which has been produced as proof of concept for a full-length feature set to film later in the year.

Code 8 is directed by Jeff Chan and stars Robbie Amell as a desperate young man possessing special powers clashes with a militarized police force after committing a petty crime. Take a look at the short here…

If you’d like to support the feature project, you can do so on IndieGogo.
