British crime thriller The Corrupted gets a poster and trailer

April 5, 2019 by Amie Cranswick

Ahead of its UK release next month, a trailer and poster have arrived online for director Ron Scalpello’s upcoming British crime thriller The Corrupted which stars Sam Claflin, Timothy Spall, Hugh Bonneville, David Hayman, Noel Clarke, Naomi Ackie, Charlie Murphy, and Joe Claflin; take a look here…

Beneath the blinding lights and towering sights of the newly-built East London skyline, lies a dark, dangerous web of corruption. Stratford was home to the Olympic Games; decorated in the notion of legacy. But there’s little hope to be found for the recently released Liam McDonagh (Sam Claflin); a talented boxer put away for armed robbery, who wants nothing more than a peaceful life, and to reconnect with his young son Archie. But his brother Sean (Joe Claflin) is in deep, caught up in property developer Clifford Cullen’s (Timothy Spall) violent, unforgiving circle, with no route out. Liam knows he must risk everything to save his brother before it’s too late, but first, he needs to know who he can trust – which is a harder proposition than it sounds.

The Corrupted is set for release on May 3rd in the UK.
