Dr. Who To Star In ‘Bad Samaritan’

This summer Misfits and Mute star Robert Sheehan goes up against Jessica Jones and Doctor Who’s David Tennant in a house invasion thriller with a difference.

Tennant will play a man who kidnaps women and ties them up in his mansion, but does not reckon upon a burglar stumbling upon his nefarious activities.

For Bad Samaritan, here is the synopsis:

Struggling photographer Sean Falco (Sheehan), who funds his lifestyle with a sideline in burglary, thinks he has hit the jackpot when he breaks into the luxurious house of the wealthy Cale Erendreich (Tennant).  Things go wrong when Sean discovers a woman chained up in the house. Unable to free her before Cale returns, Sean reluctantly goes to the police to explain what he’s seen. By the time they investigate, Cale has covered his tracks, and the police tell Sean to stop harassing him. Sean soon realises Cale will stop at nothing to shut him up – permanently.

Directed by Dean Devlin (Independence Day) and written by Brandon Boyce (Apt Pupil), Bad Samaritan releases in UK cinemas on August 24th.
