The pic stars Julian Sands (A Room with a View) in his last film role alongside Jack Parr (Peaky Blinders), Kim Spearman (As I Am), and Alexander Arnold (Yesterday).

Last year, writer/director Joachim Hedén brought us the survival thriller Breaking Surface (watch it Here), about a woman struggling to save her sister, who was trapped underwater by a rockslide in the icy waters of Norway. Now Hedén is in production on another thriller about diving – but this time around, the threat to the divers are sharks. Filming in Belgium, the shark thriller may or may not end up being called The Last Breath. The Wreck has also come up as a potential title. But whatever the title happens to be, the first image from the film has been unveiled online and you can check it out at the bottom of this article.
According to Deadline, The Last Breath – I’m just going to keep calling it that for now – has been written by Nick Saltrese (Prayer Before Dawn). The story centers on

More shark attack horror is on the way with The Last Breath, and Deadline lets us know this week that filming is underway in Belgium. They’ve also shared a first-look image (above).
Joachim Hedén (Breaking Surface) is directing a script by Nick Saltrese (Prayer Before Dawn).
“The survival thriller follows five college friends who go scuba diving into a recently uncovered WWII shipwreck in the British Virgin Islands, where they find themselves trapped by great white sharks.”
Jack Parr (Peaky Blinders), Kim Spearman (As I Am) and Erin Mullen star alongside Julian Sands (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo).
Deadline notes that Eric Börjeson (Let The Right One In) is the cinematographer.
Released back in 2020, Joachim Hedén’s Breaking Surface is one hell of an intense underwater thriller, so we cannot wait to see what Hedén does with sharks added into the mix.
This should be one to keep an eye on!

Debut director managed his own UK theatrical release during pandemic.
Dean Devlin’s Electric Entertainment has acquired US rights to UK drama As I Am, the feature debut of writer/director Guy Davies.
In a deal struck directly with the filmmakers, it is understood that a theatrical release is being planned for May, before the feature is rolled out on digital platforms later in the summer.
The coming-of-age drama was initially titled Philophobia in the UK, where Davies managed a theatrical release in the territory himself during the pandemic but saw the release cut short when a second national lockdown was introduced in November.
