“I had a lot of problems in financing [‘Domino’]. I never experienced such a horrible movie set. A large part of our team has not even been paid yet by the Danish producers. The film is finished and ready to go out, but I have no idea what its future will hold, it is currently in the hands of the producers. This was my first experience in Denmark and most likely my last.” How’s that for a selling point? That’s Brian De Palma talking about his latest film “Domino” which is finally coming out and will hit theaters and VOD, courtesy of Saban Films, on May 31.
But as the director suggested, “Domino” was a bad experience for him, a film that was seemingly taken away by the producer and likely one he’s not going to do a lot of press for. The movie is a terrorist thriller about a Copenhagen police officer who seeks justice for his partner’s murder by a mysterious man, that stars “Game Of Thrones” actors Nicolaj Coster-Waldau, Carice van Houten, and Guy Pearce. Here’s the official synopsis:

In a world wracked by terror and suspicion, Copenhagen police officer, Christian (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau), seeks justice for his partner’s murder by an ISIS member named Imran. On the hunt for the killer, Christian and a fellow cop are unwittingly caught in a cat and mouse chase with a duplicitous CIA agent (Guy Pearce) who is using Imran as a pawn to trap other ISIS members. Soon Christian is racing against the clock – not only seeking revenge, but to save his own life.
Written by Petter Skavlan, De Palma has described the movie as “not his film,” but hell, it’s coming, and everything the filmmaker has made is intriguing, so we’ll be there on opening day (or home on VOD, whichever way it works out. Check out the new trailer below and let us know what you think. “Domino” finally sees the light of day on May 31. [via ET Online]
