DarkGame is a 2024 British crime thriller film directed by Howard J Ford and starring Ed Westwick.

Premise

A killer live streams his murders on the Dark Web in the form of a twisted game show.[1]

Cast

Production

The film was written by Gary Grant and Niall Johnson and directed by Howard J Ford. Tom George was the producer for Happy Hour Productions.[2] George showed the script to Ford who chose to direct the film because he described it as "cool thriller with a character that has the potential to give it a bit of heart, and it was also kind of noirish. I thought I could make something totally different to the other films I've done".[3]

It starred Ed Westwick alongside Rose Reynolds, Andrew P Stephen, Natalya Tsvetkova, Lola Wayne, and Rory Alexander as well as Joe Urquhart, Anthony Ofoegbu and Marc Danbury.[4]

Although set in Portland, Oregon, principal photography largely took place in Bristol, England.[5] The film entered post-production in 2022.[2]

Release

The film had a limited theatrical release on 20 February 2024,[6] and had a digital media release on 21 October 2024.[7]
