Craig Fairbrass is A Violent Man in trailer for prison thriller

January 14, 2022 by Amie Cranswick

Ahead of its UK release this February, a poster and trailer have arrived online for writer-director Ross McCall’s upcoming prison thriller A Violent Man which sees Craig Fairbrass leading a cast that includes Stephen Odubola, Jason Flemyng, and Zoe Tapper; take a look here…

Steve Mackleson (Fairbrass) is a violent and dangerous prisoner, incarcerated for double murder in a maximum security prison, and wracked with inner turmoil about his past sins and unquenchable need for carnage. When Marcus (Odubola) becomes his new cell mate, and a daughter he has never met finally requests a chance to meet her estranged father, Steve must reconsider his nihilistic outlook and brutal outbursts. When Marcus becomes the victim of a revenge attack, Steve steps in to save him and they both become marked men, their sentences set to be cut short, the hard way.

A Violent Man arrives in cinemas on February 4th in the UK.
