TIFF Adds Special Screening Of Zack Snyder’s Passion Project ‘The Last Photograph’

The Toronto International Film Festival has added a last minute special screening of Zack Snyder‘s The Last Photograph, which will make its world premiere at 6:30pm on Sunday, Sept. 13, in the John Bassett Theatre, TIFF’s new screening venue at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre.

The project which Deadline first told you about stars Stuart Martin (Army of Thieves) and Fra Free
(Hawkeye) in a story about an ex-DEA agent who is seeking revenge in a South American jungle where dangerous terrain and inner demons intermingle. The production was shot in Colombia, Iceland and Los Angeles.

Snyder worked with both stars on sci-fi franchise Rebel Moon and obtained independent financing to shoot the pic.

“The idea of taking a camera in hand and simply making a movie in an intimate way is very appealing to me,” Snyder told Deadline when the project was announced. “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.”

Snyder directed off a screenplay by Kurt Johnstad, with the filmmaker having a story-by credit. Snyder, Deborah Snyder and Wesley Coller produce through Stone Quarry and continue their creative partnership with Gianni Nunnari who is producing through Hollywood Gang Productions along with co-producer Alisha Stickney.

EPs are Mediaset España, through its film production arm Telecinco Cinema, William Doyle and Jaguar Bite. True North serves as the production service company in Iceland, while Jaguar Bite, run by Juan Pablo Solano and Simon Beltran, serves as the Colombian production service company.
