Matthew Marsden making directorial debut with I Am That Man

May 26, 2017 by Gary Collinson

Matthew Marsden (Black Hawk Down, Rambo) is making his directorial debut with the gritty thriller I Am That Man, which has just started production in Los Angeles.

Struggling to come to terms with the break-up of his marriage and his reintegration into civilian life, former Navy SEAL John Beckett contemplates returning to what he knows best, war. When a close friend is brutally murdered in a racially motivated attack, Beckett calls upon his specialized military skills to find the perpetrators and bring them to justice. Has he found a new sense of purpose, or will this be his last mission?

The film sees Marsden directing from his own script, as well as starring alongside Christine Lakin (Family Guy, Valentine’s Day), Jeremy Ratchford (Cold Case, Leatherheads), Stelio Savante (Blood In The Water, The Making Of The Mob) and Josh Kelly (Unreal, One Life To Live).

I Am That Man is produced by Hazel Blue Productions in association with Roaming Elephant Productions. Producers are Margaret Blackwell, Matt Shapira, Luke Daniels, Soon Hee Newbold, Chadwick Struck and Matthew Marsden.

Originally published May 26, 2017. Updated April 16, 2018.
