    One of the most diverse experiences I’ve ever had: Josh Lucas on Lionsgate Play’s Black Demon

    Mumbai: Man vs. beast at its finest! Lionsgate Play presents Black Demon starring the charismatic Josh Lucas in the lead role as he takes a work-family vacation. However, lurking in the shadows is an ancient curse, cast by vengeful deities, that threatens all that dare cross its path. This malevolent curse spares no one, as a solitary Megalodon circles the El Diamante oil rig, unleashing its fury upon anyone who dares to venture too close. Joining Josh Lucas in this heart-pounding Lionsgate Play thriller are the talented Fernanda Urrejola, Julio Cesar Cedillo, and Venus Ariel. Catch the exclusive premiere of Black Demon on 8 September exclusively on Lionsgate Play, and prepare for a showdown like no other.

    Talking about his character, lead actor Josh Lucas said, “I play Paul Sturgis, who is an oilman. In the sense, he’s an inspector of oil rigs. He is also a guy who goes on a family vacation slash work trip down to Baja… he takes his family there for a kind of mix ‘work and pleasure weekend’ as he’s doing an inspection of an oil rig called El Diamante. So yes, his job is to inspect the rig and make sure that everything’s running safely.”

    Further elaborating on his experience as a filmmaker, “It’s been one of the most diverse experiences I’ve ever had from a filmmaking standpoint, which is one of the things I love most about getting to travel and work with people from all over the world.”

    Hopefully, it’s a movie that kids love: Josh Lucas on Lionsgate’s Black Demon

    Mumbai: Family fun with a twist! Lionsgate Play exclusively brings to your screens, the shark-venture of the season, Black Demon starring the dashing Josh Lucas in the lead. Threatening Josh and his family though, is an ancient curse, placed by Angry Gods. This curse spares none, as the lonesome Megalodon that circles the oil rig of El Diamante, attacks anyone that gets close, bringing down nature’s wrath upon them. This Lionsgate Play thriller starring Fernanda Urrejola, Julio Cesar Cedillo, and Venus Ariel alongside Josh Lucas is set to premiere exclusively on 8 September.

    Talking about Black Demon and his reason for making it, actor Josh Lucas said, “The Black Demon is a classic action-adventure shark story. And without a doubt, one of the things I think that makes it special is that it’s got a very family at its core, a young family at its core. So hopefully, it’s a movie that kids love. It’s a movie that hopefully parents will love. I partly made this movie because I have a nine-year-old boy who loves these kinds of movies.”

    The actor further drew parallels with the classic Jurassic Park franchise and said, “We saw Jurassic Park movies a few days before I got this script. The first scene – in that one of them is Megalodon, right? And so in this movie, we have a giant Megalodon shark, an ancient shark, who’s haunting the movie and has been sort of cursed on this oil rig in this part of the land by an angry God. And it’s a very amazing story of, you know, nature versus man versus environmental problems that we’re all facing all kinds of colliding together, hopefully in a really fun action film.. a really fun kind of scary action film.“

    The Black Demon is coming to your screens exclusively on Lionsgate Play on 8 September.
