Calum Gray of sale's company Architect was quoted saying: "You couldn’t ask for a more ingenious and thrilling high concept than High Tide. It’s so concrete, so memorable. For a survival thriller, it’s the perfect cocktail of a treacherous, ultra-challenging environment and a single-minded, relentless antagonist. It will thrill global audiences to their core. The excellent Lizzy Greene plays a hugely relatable and highly sympathetic character who we will root for, while David and his seasoned team will craft around her a paradisal, exotic but dangerously immersive world."
Star Lizzy Greene was quoted saying: "Exploring Hannah’s odyssey amidst the backdrop of practical & special FX in our shark-centric tale is going to add a great dimension to the storytelling process. It’ll be a challenge, and I’m eager to dive into the creative waters with this incredible team."
Director David Straiton was quoted saying: "High Tide’s soul sets it apart. At its core is a story of a young woman dealing with past trauma, a secret and trying to find peace and her way back into the world. Lizzy possesses the same soulfulness, sense of hope and inner courage as Hannah, whose strength will be forged in the terrifying trials to come."
This marks the feature film directorial debut of David Straiton, who until now has mostly worked with shows including Narcos, The Originals, Hemlock Grove and Shooter.
Scripted by Erik Patterson and Jessica Scott (duo behind Deep Blue Sea 2 and Abandoned).
This is said to be a survival shark thriller.
