Mute Image 1 (Netflix)There’s not a lot to go on about it – outside of a few images – but Netflix is teasing a new science fiction film, written and directed by Duncan Jones, on the horizon. It looks like the steaming service is aiming to up its game as far as original movies with talent such as Jones, Alexander Skarsgård, and Paul Rudd attached to Mute. Most Netflix original series run from good to excellent but many of their exclusive films? Not so much. Mute is set to air sometime later this year.

From Netflix:

Netflix presents the First Look at the highly-anticipated futuristic thriller Mute.  Enter the captivating world of visionary filmmaker Duncan Jones, featuring Alexander Skarsgård, Paul Rudd, Justin Theroux and newcomer Seyneb Saleh.

Duncan Jones, the creative mind behind the cult-hit Moon and Source Code, returns to his creative roots with this original and gripping story set in an immersive universe.

Mute Image 2 (Netflix)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.

The Netflix original film is directed by Duncan Jones and written by Jones and Michael Robert Johnson.  Stuart Fenegan serves as producer and Charles J.D. Schissel and Trevor Beattie serve as executive producers. The film will launch in all territories where Netflix is available in 2017.
