The first look at the futuristic thriller is here, highlighting the central trio of Alexander Skarsgård, Paul Rudd and Justin Theroux who will power this Berlin-set tale that kicks off when a woman goes missing. Here’s the official synopsis:
Set in the near-future, Leo (Alexander Skarsgård) is a bartender living in the pulsing city of Berlin. Because of a childhood accident, Leo lost the ability to speak and the only good thing in his life is his beautiful girlfriend Naadirah (Seyneb Saleh). When she vanishes without a trace, Leo’s search for her takes him deep into the city’s seedy underbelly. A pair of wise-cracking American surgeons (Paul Rudd and Justin Theroux) are the only recurring clue and Leo is forced to take on this teeming underworld in order to find his love.
“Mute” will hit Netflix in 2017.
