The sequel to the original Flatliners, which will find Kiefer Sutherland reprising his character from the 1990 flick, will be coming out a month later than planned, moving its release date from August 18, 2017, to September 29, 2017.
Ellen Page, Diego Luna, Nina Dobrev, Beau Mirchoff, James Norton, and Kiersey Clemens also star.
Flatliners is being directed by Niels Arden Oplev (Sweden’s The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, TV’s “Mr. Robot”) from a script by Ben Ripley (Source Code).
Laurence Mark and Michael Douglas (who also produced the original movie) are producing.
The original thriller, which co-starred Julia Roberts, Kevin Bacon, Billy Baldwin, and Oliver Platt, followed five medical students who decide to trigger near-death experiences by purposely stopping their hearts. However, as they delve into their work, the experiments become more and more dangerous and scary as they are forced to confront the sins of their pasts as well as contend with the paranormal consequences of crossing a line to the other side.
