A once-promising Naval commander is blackmailed by a cartel-like operation into piloting a dangerous submarine carrying illegal cargo across international waters. Thrust into a high-stakes game of cat and mouse, the man must outmaneuver blockades and navigate perilous threats both in and outside of the submarine.

Six new actors have recently joined the film's cast. Let's find out.

The cast of Subversion has gone through an expansion with six new faces joining the film.

  • Joe Cole
  • David Wenham
  • Robert John Burke
  • Simone Kessell

The makers are yet to reveal the details around the parts they will play. The film focuses on a yesteryear celebrated naval commander (played by Hemsworth) who is arm-twisted by a gang into doing illegal activities. He is forced to take a submarine filled with illegal cargo materials. The film focuses on him trying to evade the Coast Guard officer.

Stephen Shafer, Greg Cohen, and E. Bennett Walsh are the film's executive producers. Last week, it was announced that shooting for Subversion had started in Gold Coast.

Speaking to If.com, the film's producer Bonaventura, spoke about shooting in Queensland, Australia.

“Queensland was a natural fit because it offers incredible scenery, a great studio and a world-class crew. A lot of the movie takes place on the water and Queensland has spectacular oceanscapes.”

Jacqui Feeney, who is the CEO of Screen Queensland, said:

“We are proud to continue our ongoing collaboration with Amazon MGM Studios which has recently included the productions Balls Up, The Bluff and Voltron. Subversion further cements the trust that has been established with our local crew base. We are pleased to welcome back executive producer E. Bennett Walsh with another complex action epic that will be shot between Brisbane and the Gold Coast.”
