Warner Bros. Opens “GETAWAY” Wide Friday, August 30th

Being big fans of Ethan Hawke's work in the "Before" trilogy, Training Day and Reality Bites, we're really looking forward to Getaway.

 

“GETAWAY” is the gritty, heart-pounding action thriller from Warner Bros. Pictures and Dark Castle Entertainment starring Academy Award® nominee Ethan Hawke (“Training Day,” “The Purge,” “Sinister”), actress and international music sensation Selena Gomez (“Springbreakers,” “Wizards of Waverly Place”), and Academy Award® winner Jon Voight (“Coming Home,” the “National Treasure” films) under the direction of Courtney Solomon (“An American Haunting”), who also produced the film.

Former race car driver Brent Magna (Hawke) is pitted against the clock. Desperately trying to save the life of his kidnapped wife, Brent commandeers a custom Ford Shelby GT500 Super Snake, taking it and its unwitting owner (Gomez) on a high-speed race against time, at the command of the mysterious villain holding his wife hostage.

Rounding out the cast are Rebecca Budig and Bruce Payne.

Solomon, Allan Zeman, Moshe Diamant and Christopher Milburn produced the film. The executive producers are Julius R. Nasso, Wayne Marc Godfrey, Robert Jones, Bobby Ranghelov, John Goodman, Dennis L. Pelino, Caludia Bluemhuber, Ian Hutchinson, Joel Silver and Steve Richards. The screenplay was written by Sean Finegan and Gregg Maxwell Parker. Finegan also served as co-producer along with Stephanie Caleb.

The behind-the-scenes team includes director of photography Yaron Levy, editor Ryan Dufrene, production designer Nate Jones, and costume designer Roseanne Fiedler. The music is by Justin Burnett.
