Toronto, Sept 3 (IBNS): Netflix's Hold The Dark film will premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) 2018 on Sep 12.

The film stars Jeffrey Wright, Alexander Skarsgård, James Badge Dale, Riley Keough and Julian Black Antelope in diverse roles.

The premiere will take place at Princess of Wales Theatre in the city.

The film's plot is centred on the journeys of retired naturalist and wolf expert Russell Core (Jeffrey Wright) to the edge of civilization in northern Alaska at the pleading of Medora Slone (Riley Keough), a young mother whose son was killed by a pack of wolves.

As Core attempts to help Medora track down the wolves who took her son, a strange and dangerous relationship develops between the two lonely souls. 

But when Medora's husband Vernon (Alexander Skarsgård) returns home from the Iraq War, the news of his child's death ignites a violent chain of events. As local cop, Donald Marium (James Badge Dale), races to stop Vernon’s vengeful rampage, Core is forced on a perilous odyssey into the heart of darkness.

Hold The Dark has been written by Macon Blair, directed by Jeremy Saulnier and produced by Russell Ackerman, John Schoenfelder, Eva Maria Daniels, Neil Kopp, and Anish Savjani.

The film will start streaming on Netflix and in select theatres from Sept 28.
