“A story of survival set 20,000 years ago during the last Ice Age.”
Alpha is directed and co-written by Albert Hughes, the man who co-directed Menace II Society, Dead Presidents, and The Book of Eli, alongside his brother. The film is a survival story that takes place 20,000 years ago during the last Ice Age. I will be honest and say that this is actually the first I have heard of this movie but the trailer looks pretty damn good! The cast includes Kodi Smit-McPhee, Natassia Malthe, Leonor Varela, and Jóhannes Haukur Jóhannesson. Check out the official trailers below!!
Ted Takes Film Facts, Alpha:
- Film cannot bear a "no animals were harmed in the making of this film" tag, as 4 bison were slaughtered for use on a skinning/hide-removal scene. The bison were dispatched humanely by staff from Longview Beef Jerky.
- It was filmed near East Coulee, Alberta, Canada, at Dinosaur Provincial Park.
