Kevin Spacey joins cast of action thriller The Awakening

Kevin Spacey is joining the cast of the upcoming action-thriller film, The Awakening.

The two-time Oscar winner continues his return to Hollywood after being acquitted in his sexual offences trial in 2023.

The film, first announced last year, stars Justin Tinto, Peter Storemare, Alice Eve and Julian Glove.

Directed by Matt Routledge, the film follows Jason (Justin Tinto) and Rebecca (Alice Eve) as they unravel a conspiracy that threatens global control. 

The movie is currently in post-production, having been filmed at Pinewood Studios.

Since his acquittal, Spacey has continued to work primarily in European cinema, appearing in projects such as Control and Peter Five Eight.
