Zack Snyder has his newest movie lined up as the filmmaker is finally nearing production on his long-awaited passion project, The Last Photograph.
Stuart Martin and Fra Fee will star; both actors worked with Snyder on Netflix’s Rebel Moon. Zack Snyder will direct the film from a screenplay by Kurt Johnstad, with Snyder having a story-by credit, and also produce alongside Deborah Snyder and Wesley Coller will produce through Stone Quarry.
“The idea of taking camera in hand and simply making a movie in an intimate way is very appealing to me,” said Snyder. “The Last Photograph is a meditation of life and death, embodying some of the trials that I have experienced in my own life and the exploration of those ideas through image making.”
The story follows an ex-DEA operative who must return to the mountains of South America to find his missing niece and nephew, following the brutal murders of their diplomat parents. Enlisting the help of a washed-up junkie war photographer, the only person to have seen the face of the killers, he sets out, determined to find the children and the truth, but soon learns he must also face the ghosts of his past. Their journey into the unknown takes them farther and farther away from civilization, bringing into question everything they believe, while slowly eroding the distinction between real and surreal.
