Kevin Grevioux, well-known for his acting roles in hit films such as the 'Underworld' franchise, 'I Frankenstein,' and 'King of Killers,' is set to step into the director's chair for the action-adventure film 'Shurika.' The film, scheduled to commence production later this year, is already generating buzz as rights are being pre-sold by Reiko Bradley's Eclipse Intl. at the prestigious European Film Market, held in conjunction with the Berlin Film Festival.
Adapted by Grevioux from a graphic novel published by his Darkstorm Comics & Media company, 'Shurika' follows the story of a biracial Black Japanese woman navigating complex familial dynamics. Hidden from her Yakuza grandfather by her mother, the protagonist's journey unfolds as she searches for her birth mother, leading her into a gripping conflict between the ninja clan that raised her and the formidable Japanese underworld.
