Last Seen Alive
Short description
Will Spann is driving his wife Lisa to her parents' house when they stop at a gas station. Lisa, who had planned to spend time with her family amid strain in the marriage, disappears without a trace. Will alerts the local police, but with no clear evidence of a crime the investigation moves slowly, and suspicion begins to fall on him. Frustrated by the lack of progress, he takes matters into his own hands, pursuing leads through the city's criminal underworld while trying to stay ahead of the authorities.
The film is directed by Brian Goodman, his third feature after What Doesn't Kill You and Black Butterfly. Marc Frydman wrote the screenplay, and Gerard Butler, Frydman and Alan Siegel produced. Butler stars as Will, with Jaimie Alexander as Lisa and Russell Hornsby as Detective Paterson; Ethan Embry, Michael Irby and Bruce Altman appear in supporting roles. Twenty-seven cast members and 105 crew are credited. The production was handled by Voltage Pictures, G-BASE, Perfection Hunter Productions and Marc Frydman Productions, and it runs 95 minutes.
Released in May 2022, the film earned about 6 million dollars worldwide. On IMDb it holds 5.7 out of 10 from roughly 36,000 votes, while on TMDB it sits at 6.4 from around 1,100 votes. A critics' rating of 4 out of 10 from 14 reviews places it below the audience scores.
What's left behind the scenes
- According to Gerard Butler (who played Will Spann), he improvised constantly during filming. He was only given the first ten pages of the script to read, and even those were largely ignored soon after filming began. The entire film took 8 days to shoot. Butler really enjoyed starting to film a scene with no idea how it would end. The actor could only rely on the other cast members and director Brian Goodman.
