Rosario Dawson (Ahsoka), Alexandra Shipp (Anyone But You), and Milla Jovovich (Resident Evil) star together in a new action thriller titled Midnight.
The movie just completed production under the direction of first-time feature film director Joshua Otis Miller and writers Lamont Magee and Jeff Byrd.
Midnight follows “a young, blind woman (Shipp) as she is hunted by a group of international criminals (led by Jovovich) searching for a package they believe was given to the woman by her federal agent sister (Dawson).
“However, the assailants quickly realize that the woman, though unable to see, may be far more dangerous than expected.”
Dawson said in a statement: “Without giving away too much, Midnight is an awesome action movie, revolving around duty and sacrifice.
“It’s about coming into your own and embracing your independence, but at its core, it’s a movie about family and that’s what really resonated with me. I’m so thrilled to be a part of such an incredible project with this spectacular cast and crew.”
Levine and Beckerman added: “Partnering with Rosario on this film has been an amazing experience. She’s a remarkably talented actress, and we couldn’t be more impressed by her creative process as a producer.
“Dawson, along with Alexandra Shipp and Milla Jovovich, give action packed fantastic performances, and we cannot wait for audiences to see ‘Midnight.’”
The film is produced by Jordan Yale Levine and Jordan Beckerman of Yale Productions in collaboration with Dawson, Leah Elizabeth Rucinski, and Timothy Christian and Rab Butler of Night Fox Entertainment. Other producers include David Gere, Chelsea Vale, and Beth Bryant. Michael Day co-produced.
