Emmy-nominated actress Michelle Dockery ("Downton Abbey") has joined the cast of the action thriller "Boy Kills World". The film is directed by German filmmaker Moritz Mohr in his feature directorial debut, from a script by Arend Remmers ("Sløborn") and Tyler Burton Smith (2019's "Child's Play"). Sam Raimi is one of the film's producers.
The cast also includes Bill Skarsgård, Famke Janssen, Brett Gelman, Sharlto Copley, Samara Weaving, martial arts master Yayan Ruhian, Jessica Rothe, Andrew Koji and Isaiah Mustafa.
The film follows Boy (Skarsgard), a deaf mute with a vibrant imagination. When his family is murdered, he escapes to the jungle and is trained by a mysterious shaman to repress his childish imagination and become an instrument of death. Dockery will play the sister of the film's Van der Koy family. Melanie is a satirical powerhouse and sociopath who tries to project a powerful cohesive family image to hide the desperation behind their decaying dynasty.
Production has already started two weeks ago in South Africa. The film is expected to be released either later this year, or next year.
Dockery can next be seen in Netflix's "Anatomy of a Scandal", which will be released on April 15, and the "Downton Abbey" movie "Downton Abbey: A New Era", which opens in U.S. theaters on May 20th.
