Dylan Sprouse & Mason Gooding are set to star in Patrick Lussier’s Aftermath. The pair teams up to lead the cast ensemble, including Megan Scott, Kevin Chapman, Dichen Lachman, Tanner Zagarino, and Will Lyman. Deadline reports that the film just wrapped up principal photography in Boston, and they’re now off to the upcoming European Film Market, where Voltage Pictures will handle the global sales for the film.
Brian Pitt, Lucas Jarach, and Tim Sullivan produced the film in partnership with Voltage Pictures. Aftermath is penned by Nathan Graham Davis and directed by Patrick Lussier. The director is widely known for his horror films, and he previously directed My Bloody Valentine, Scream: The TV Series, and The Purge. Voltage President and COO Jonathan Deckter believes Patrick Lussier is the perfect choice to direct the film, and the cast complimented the director’s skills.
Deckter said to Deadline, “With Patrick’s (Lussier) expert direction, Dylan, Mason, Dichen, and Megan deliver knock-out performances in Aftermath. I’m sure our content partners and audiences the world over will respond incredibly well to this high voltage, fresh, THIS generation Action film."
After Deadline published the article, the lead star Dylan Sprouse couldn’t keep his excitement and shared a photo of Deadline’s article on his Instagram with the caption, “Wanna watch two nerds beat each other up on a bridge? That’s what I thought. This flick is gunna be a fun one, @masonthegooding @itsmeganstott @dichenlachman and @tannerzagarino all go crazy in this. A wild ride filled with Army ranger executions all the way through, very fun stuff."

The Aftermath Synopsis
Boulderlight Pictures
The film is about a former Army Ranger named Eric Daniels, played by Dylan Sprouse, who found himself trapped with hundreds of other commuters, including a high-profile prisoner, played by Dichen Lachman, on what was supposed to be a peaceful afternoon drive. The commuters were trapped in Boston’s Tobin Bridge after some heavily armed ex-military contractors headed by Mason Gooding’s character shut it down.
Soon, Gooding’s character started killing off hostages, and Daniels knew he needed to do something to stop people from dying. The former Army Ranger had no choice but to rely on his military training and killer instinct to go against the bad guys. While forming his plot, he gets unexpected help that will get him to save everyone, including his sister.
