Action star Scott Adkins is proving once again that he’s not afraid to use any means necessary to thwart a devious international plan that’s been set in motion by his enemies. Principal photography has begun on the actor’s latest action thriller, ‘Incoming,’ from prolific indie producers, Benattar/Thomas Productions.

The new sci-fi movie, which is being shot in Belgrade, Serbia, is being financed by the UK’s Sharp House. XLrator Media will distribute the film in North America, and foreign sales will be handled by Premiere Entertainment Group.

‘Incoming’ marks the feature directorial debut of longtime Benattar/Thomas collaborator, Eric “Z” Zaragoza. The drama’s script was written by Jorge Saralegui, and is based on an original story that he created with Rick Benattar and Nigel Thomas, who also served as producers on the drama.

Premiere’s Elias Axume, as well as Milos Dukelic of the Belgrade production service company, Red Production, are also producing the action thriller. XLrator Media’s Barry Gordon and Michael Radiloff, as well as Sharp House’s Ian Sharp, Rebecca Joerin-Sharp and Emma Dutton, are serving as executive producers on ‘Incoming.’

‘Incoming’ follows the International Space Station as it’s now being used as a prison, and is the ultimate black site. None of the prisoners will ever leave, and no one knows it exists. But when the imprisoned terrorists take over the Station and turn it into a missile aimed at Moscow, only a shuttle pilot and a rookie doctor can stop them. Their task is complicated by a rogue CIA agent (Adkins), who has his own plans for the station and the terrorists within.

Adkins’ deal was negotiated by Joe Hutton of London’s BWH Agency and Brett Norensberg at Gersh. “We’re thrilled to be working with Scott on this exciting new project. It’s a science fiction film but rooted in the realities of our world today. It explores familiar themes and looks at what could be our world in the not-too-distant future,” Benattar said of working on ‘Incoming.’

“We are excited to work with Scott Adkins again after our collaboration on ‘Close Range.’ He is one of the best action heroes and martial artists in the world today,” said XLrator Media CEO Barry Gordon.
