The Jung School and NI Screen have teamed up for the upcoming existential mystery film One of Us (not The Last of Us), written and directed by Stefan van de Graaff in his feature film debut. Filming is scheduled to take place this month in Belfast, Northern Ireland. The plot centers around a family gathering that turns sinister when members of the family begin dying one by one at a funeral, while Kit Connor’s character searches for the stranger in their midst.
The film will star Douglas Henshall, best known for his role as DI Jimmy Perez in the mystery series “Shetland,” and Sienna Guillory seen in Resident Evil: Afterlife and Love Actually. Also joining the cast are Beccy Henderson, Helena Breen, and David Horovitch, along with Emmy-award winning actor Kit Connor, Charlotte Hope, Callum Woodhouse, Siobhan Fallon-Hogan, and Ian Beattie. That’s a lot of folks, folks!! Raquel Baldwin will serve as the producer, with Robert Machoian as co-producer and van de Graaff as executive producer.
In addition to his role in Shetland, Henshall has also appeared in the series Outlander and in feature films such as The Salvation, and Dorian Gray. Sienna has also appeared in large animal films such as Clifford the Big Red Dog and highly anticipated Ben Wheatley shark sequel The Meg 2: The Trench.
David is known for her roles in the series “The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance” which as a puppet adverse person, was too scary to watch, while Helena has appeared in films such as Don’t Leave Home, and found footage period piece The Devil’s Doorway.
