As a cinephile who’s spent countless hours immersed in action-packed narratives, I can hardly contain my excitement for the upcoming film, “Painter.” The combination of Chris Pratt, fresh off his successful run as the titular character in “Reacher,” and Amber Midthunder, whose performance as Naru in “Prey” left me utterly captivated, promises an electrifying on-screen chemistry.
A fresh action-packed thriller, penned by the same writer as John Wick and Nobody, has found its top-notch action duo. The film, called Painter, will feature none other than the lead from Reacher and the star of Prey in a story about an expertly trained assassin who uses her unique abilities to save her father after he’s been kidnapped. (This information comes via Deadline.)
Should the prospect of “Painter” not already excite you with its promise of pulse-pounding excitement, it’s important to note that this action thriller is being directed by Garrett Warren. Although his name might not be familiar, you’ll surely recognize some of the films he’s worked on as a stunt coordinator – “Logan”, “Avatar”, and the recent reboot of “Road House”. “Painter” is poised to kickstart a brand-new action series for FilmNation Entertainment’s Infrared production label, and you can read the official synopsis below.
The story revolves around a young woman, who was taught from childhood, utilizing all her artistic abilities to save her father after he gets abducted.
The studio intends to debut the sale of ‘Painter’ at the upcoming American Film Market (AFM) in Las Vegas, where it is anticipated to be a much-coveted production. In a released statement, Drew Simon, President of Production at Infrared, expressed their ambition to mold Midthunder into “the Sarah Connor of this generation.” Simon also lauded Kolstad’s fresh action script with high praise.
As a passionate cinephile, I’m eagerly anticipating “Painter” – a groundbreaking action film that’s poised to catapult Midthunder into the role of this era’s iconic action hero, akin to Sarah Connor in “Terminator”. Christopher Kolstad’s pulse-pounding script had us hooked, and with Garrett Warren directing, I have no doubt it will ignite an exhilarating new franchise in the realm of high-octane action cinema.
Amber Midthunder & Alan Ritchson Will Make the Perfect Action Movie Pairing
Amber Midthunder gained prominence for her performances in various productions such as “The Ice Road” paired with Liam Neeson, “Dream Scenario” alongside Nicolas Cage, the Netflix adaptation of “Avatar: The Last Airbender,” and the Marvel series “Legion.” However, her most significant role to date was portraying the lead in the 2022 release of “Prey,” a film that received critical acclaim. Directed by Dan Trachtenberg, “Prey” focuses on Midthunder as Naru, a young Comanche warrior battling an advanced and lethal extraterrestrial threat to protect her tribe. Reports indicate that a sequel is now in development, with the “Predator” franchise planning further expansion through additional movies and a potential animated spin-off.
In the meantime, Alan Ritchson’s fame and action hero status have skyrocketed due to his performance in the highly successful Amazon Prime series, “Reacher.” The actor is slated to repeat his character for “Reacher” Season 3, which will be adapted from the seventh novel in Lee Child’s series, “Persuader.” In this season, the character delves undercover to save an informant captured by a chilling adversary from his past. Notably, “Reacher” has been renewed for a fourth season, and a spin-off focusing on Maria Sten as Frances Neagley is expected to return.
