The Collective | Tom DeNucci on Bringing Back the Love of 90s Action Films

Lucas Till in The Collective

The 90s action flicks are our favorite popcorn-chomping movie night on Fridays or Saturdays. Director Tom DeNucci wanted to bring back that experience with The Collective of action, humor, fights, and gunplay.

The Collective stars Lucas Till (X-Men franchise), Ruby Rose (Orange Is the New Black, John Wick: Chapter 2), Mercedes Varnado (The Mandalorian, WWE Smackdown!), Paul Ben-Victor (Plane, The Wire), Tyrese Gibson (Transformers franchise, Fast & Furious franchise), and Don Johnson (Miami Vice, Knives Out).

DeNucci directed the film from the screenplay by Jason James and Matthew Rogers (The Survivalist, Code Name Banshee).

Here is the synopsis:

A group of righteous assassins called The Collective take aim at a highly sophisticated human trafficking ring backed by a network of untouchable billionaires. With their backs against the wall, The Collective has no choice but to put their most important mission in the hands of a rookie assassin Sam Alexander.
