Britt Robertson is joining Kellan Lutz in The Rescue, a faith-based survival thriller that Premiere Entertainment is bringing to buyers at the American Film Market, Deadline reports.
After a violent storm leaves a rescue team stranded on a frozen Alaskan mountain, an injured pilot and a determined young medic have to fight their way across the treacherous terrain to retrieve emergency medical supplies and save a dying child, with a rival rescue team closing in behind them.
Production is scheduled to begin in New Zealand in February 2027. The film is directed by Darren Simmonds and Jared van Berkel, from a screenplay by van Berkel, and produced by Simon Ambridge, Anton Steel and van Berkel.
“The Rescue has everything international audiences respond to: a recognizable cast, an expansive survival story, and strong emotional themes of endurance, hope, and redemption,” said Elias Axume, CEO of Premiere Entertainment Group. “We are honored to work with this team and share a fresh, thrilling new story with partners around the world.”
Robertson is a familiar face to faith audiences. She starred opposite KJ Apa in the 2020 hit I Still Believe, and she led Disney’s Tomorrowland. Lutz is best known as Emmett Cullen in The Twilight Saga and for The Expendables 3. No release date has been announced.
