ATM thriller to be shot in Winnipeg
A thriller set around an automated teller machine will shoot in Winnipeg in the next month with stars Josh Peck, Brian Geraghty and Margarita Levieva.
Titled ATM, the film follows a desperate crisis that arises when three co-workers (played by Peck, Geraghty and Levieva) go to an ATM for some cash and are trapped in the supermarket facility by a mysterious man in a hooded parka.
Peck may be best known for the Nickelodeon series Drake & Josh and more recently as the troubled teen hero of The Wackness. Geraghty starred in the film The Hurt Locker as the guilt-ridden youngest member of a bomb disposal squad and more recently starred in Open House, the directorial debut of Winnipeg-born filmmaker Andrew Paquin.
Levieva appeared in Adventureland as Lisa P., the sexy and unexpectedly chaste young woman who pursues Jesse Eisenberg.
Like the hit horror thriller The Haunting in Connecticut, the film is produced by Gold Circle Films in association with local production company Buffalo Gal Pictures.
The film is scripted by Chris Spalding, who made a splash at Sundance earlier this year with the even more minimalist thriller Buried, which is set inside a coffin where a man (Ryan Reynolds) has been buried alive.
