After ‘Rebel Moon,’ Zack Snyder‘s long-awaited passion project The Last Photograph is heading into production. Starring Fra Fee and Stuart Martin, the film follows a man searching for his missing niece and nephew after the murders of their parents, with the help of a photographer—the only man to see the killers.
Snyder will direct from a screenplay by Kurt Johnstad, with Snyder holding a story-by credit. Filming begins this month and will conclude in November, with shoot locations in Iceland, Colombia, and Los Angeles. Hans Zimmer, Steven Doar, and Omer Benyamin will compose the score.
Here are the plot details for The Last Photograph:
The Last Photograph follows an ex-DEA operative who must return to the mountains of South America to find his missing niece and nephew after the brutal murders of their diplomat parents. Enlisting the help of a washed-up, junkie war photographer—the only person to have seen the killers’ faces—he sets out determined to rescue the children and uncover the truth, but soon learns he must also confront the ghosts of his past. Their journey into the unknown takes them farther from civilization, challenging everything they believe while slowly eroding the boundary between the real and the surreal.
The film is produced by Mediaset España, through its film production arm Telecinco Cinema, William Doyle, and Jaguar Bite. True North serves as the production service company in Iceland, while Jaguar Bite, run by Juan Pablo Solano and Simon Beltran, serves as the Colombian production service company.
In a statement (via THR), Snyder said, “The idea of taking a camera in hand and simply making a movie in an intimate way is very appealing to me.” He added, “The Last Photograph is a meditation on life and death, embodying some of the trials that I have experienced in my own life and the exploration of those ideas through image-making.”
The Last Photograph has been in development for around 20 years and has undergone several changes. Originally, the story was set in Afghanistan and followed a war correspondent who was the lone survivor of an attack on a group of Americans. In the early 2010s, Christian Bale and Sean Penn were attached to star, but development halted when Snyder shifted focus to the DC movie Man of Steel.
The Last Photograph will hit theaters in 2026.
