Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Matthew Goddard shot this in Birmingham on a shoestring budget, reportedly rewriting scenes overnight based on location availability.
Released in 2017, it rode the wave of post-'Spectre' interest in psychologically damaged spies, but with a queer protagonist rarely seen in the genre. The 2.7 TMDB rating suggests audiences expected Jason Bourne and got kitchen-sink realism instead.
