Summit Entertainment, a Lionsgate company, will release on Blu-ray Daniel Espinosa's period thriller Child 44 (2015), starring Tom Hardy, Gary Oldman, Noomi Rapace, Vincent Cassel, and Joel Kinnaman. The release will be available for purchase on August 4.
Based on the first novel of the international best-selling trilogy by Tom Rob Smith and produced by the acclaimed Ridley Scott, the nail-biting thriller is written for the screen by Richard Price.
After a friend's son is found dead, Soviet secret-police officer Leo Demidov (Hardy) suspects his superiors are covering up the truth. When Leo dares to raise questions, he is demoted and exiled to a provincial outpost with his wife (Rapace). There, Leo soon discovers other mysterious deaths with similar circumstances and convinces his new boss (Oldman) that a deranged serial killer is on the loose-and must be stopped before he strikes again in this electrifying thriller.
