'Stratton' Begins Filming In May, Could Be Out In Early 2016


Stratton director Simon West, recently did an interview where he revealed some exciting key details about Henry's character. He also shared a production update!

What’s next for you?

“I’m doing a film called Stratton in London with Henry Cavill. He’s a new British action hero, I’ve been looking for a counterpoint for Bond for a while, not someone like Bond, this is a Special Forces guy and it’s a very realistic film. He’s on a mission to protect London. Henry is Superman obviously, but this is a dark, complex guy, doing what he has to do to protect London.”

How far along are you with that?

“We’re just in preparation. We’ll start shooting in May. I’ve just got Henry at the moment, but there’s a huge talent pool of British actors. I’m enjoying being back at home, I’m usually off in Bulgaria and Canada or somewhere, it’s nice to be filming in London again. If all goes well, it’ll be out at the beginning of 2016.”

Henry mentioned Stratton and why he's so excited about the film, while attending the Empire Awards. So give it a watch and stay tuned for the very latest on Stratton, with production getting closer!

  2. I love the fact that Simon West mentioned that the Stratton character is "dark and complex" I'm really looking forward to Henry taking on such a character that differs from the roles he's been doing, it's more of a real character based on a real person basically. I just finished " first into action" by Falconer it's his biography and I just can't wait to see Henry take him on. I'm just getting into Stratton now and I'm so excited for Henry, it's going to be great.
    Thanks Hcn, Simon west, Henry<3

    4. I'm so excited, Stratton is going to be awesome. I look forward to seeing Henry take on Stratton as well.
      By the way River I think you're so awesome for defending Henry the way you do! Big hug for you! I was upset as well but I didn't say anything because you asked that your response be erased, so with that I felt that nothing else needed to be said.
      I<3River!!!!!
      I love Henry forever and a day!!!

    3. Yes ,that's what I want to see. Trianing for SBS is no joke and Falconer said himself Henry is the real deal and is up for the challenge. So I'm looking forward to seeing what the SBS as well as west has in store during filming.
