Earlier this year we learned that Netflix has a new apocalyptic thriller titled How It Ends on the way, and now the first bit of casting news has arrived. British actor Theo James (Divergent series, Underworld: Awakening/Blood Wars, “Bedlam”) is set to star with David M. Rosenthal (Jacob’s Ladder remake) directing.

Per Deadline, the film will start production next month in Canada. The Black List script by Brooks McLaren centers on a mysterious apocalyptic event that turns the roads into mayhem. James plays a young father who will stop at nothing to get home to his pregnant wife on the other side of the country.

Paul Schiff, Tai Duncan, Kelly McCormick, and Patrick Newall are producing; Sierra/Affinity developed the project with Paul Schiff Productions and is handling worldwide sales and financing. Sierra’s Nick Meyer and Marc Schaberg are executive producers. Netflix holds worldwide rights to How It Ends.
