“Lockdown,” a new thriller inspired by the pandemic, will be released as a non-fungible token before it makes its debut in theaters, Variety reports.
The project has some notable cast members, including “Terminator 2: Judgment Day” star Xander Berkeley.
According to director Bizhan Tong, it will focus on innovative tech:
“Lockdown” is a commentary on the events of 2020 including our increased reliance on technology and the innovative ways in which it can be used.
The production of the movie was jointly sponsored by AMM Global, a subsidiary of major Hong Kong-based broadcaster ATV, British production company Phoenix Waters Productions and investment management firm YG Capital.
