Guns Akimbo begins production in Auckland

A press release has confirmed that Guns Akimbo started shooting yesterday in Auckland, New Zealand. Plus Samara Weaving has joined Daniel on the project. Production will also take place in Munich, Germany.

From the press release:

Synopsis: 
The story follows an ordinary man, Miles (Radcliffe), whose mundane existence of scrolling through the same three apps, enduring his office job and longing for the lost love of his much more adventurous ex, is turned upside-down when he finds himself enrolled in a dark social media movement that forces strangers to fight in a city-wide game of death, live-streamed worldwide to a fanatical audience. 

Daniel on the start of filming:

"I am massively excited to be here in Auckland starting filming on Guns Akimbo,"

"Jason Lei Howden has written a brilliant and delightfully insane script, and working with him as director and alongside the fantastic Samara Weaving to bring it to life is going to be a lot of fun. If you see me around Auckland looking very worse for wear and covered in blood and bruises, don't worry, this is probably for filming."

Producer Tom Hern:

“I’m delighted to be hosting Daniel Radcliffe and Samara Weaving, as well as our German partners, for this exciting co-production between Germany and New Zealand. I’m sure they’re going to have a ball on the fine shores of Aotearoa!”
