The Signal

0 Comments

In this sci-fi thriller, directed by William Eubank, Thwaites plays Nick, one of the three students on a trip across the south west who are drawn to an isolated area by a computer genius when suddenly everything goes dark. When he regains his consciousness he finds himself in a waking nightmare. Co-starring Laurence Fishburne, Olivia Cooke, Beau Knapp and Patrick Davidson.

My character, Nick, is going through such a confusing time. He doesn’t know where he is for most of the film, or what he’s doing; he’s trying to put the pieces together. That’s how I felt when I was shooting it. I’m really excited to see how the Sundance guys react to it.

Thwaite plays Jonas in this drama directed by Phillip Noyce. Jonas spends his time with the Giver, the sole keeper of his community’s memories, discovering the dark truth of its secret past. Co-starring Jeff Bridges, Meryl Streep, Katie Holmes and Alexander Skarsgard.

The biggest preparation for me was the auditions. That was my original preparation because there were so many of them.
