Outlander: Season 7 part 2 teaser for STARZ drama
Many will best know Sophie Skelton as Brianna Fraser – Claire Fraser (Caitriona Balfe) and Jamie Fraser’s (Sam Heughan) grown up daughter – on the hit historical drama Outlander.
However, the actress has just landed a new role in the upcoming movie Row.
The film revolves around a woman who has washed ashore on a blood stained rowing boat, following a failed trans-Atlantic world record attempt.
However, with all her crew mates missing, presumed dead, she must try and piece together the fractured memories that she has of the ordeal in order to prove her innocence.
Sophie will also be joined by Humans star, Bella Dyne, Mark Trepan from Before We Die and Akshay Khanna from Amazon Prime Video’s Red, White & Royal Blue.
The movie’s director Matthew Losasso, who will be making his feature film directing debut, spoke to The Hollywood Reporter where he teased a bit more about the upcoming thriller.
He revealed: “An immense ocean appears to stretch infinitely in all directions and yet on board the Valiant, the lack of space fuels paranoia and intense drama. It’s a compelling and fabulously ambitious script.”
Matthew also described the “challenge” of filming on water and the use of “complicated techniques to avoid green screen backdrops.”
He was keen to “capture the rugged beauty of ocean landscapes and the constraints of independent filmmaking,” during filming too.
It is not yet known when Row will hit the big screen but filming is set to begin next month in the Scottish Highlands.
The production team has even constructed a bespoke water tank on the edge of the ocean in a bid to avoid relying on post production visual effects (VFX).
