Filming has concluded in Thailand on the action-thriller Blood and Dust, featuring Golden Globe-winning actor Jonathan Rhys Meyers and Thai star Praya Lundberg in leading roles. The production wrapped principal photography after an intensive shoot across locations intended to capture both urban and rural backdrops that reflect the film’s gritty Southeast Asian narrative.
Directed, written and produced by Adam Sherman, the movie’s storyline follows a hardened mercenary hitman, portrayed by Rhys Meyers, who becomes embroiled in a violent pursuit after helping an abused nightclub owner’s wife and her young daughter flee a ruthless criminal underworld. The narrative promises intense action sequences spanning highways, jungles and coastal terrain, with Thailand’s diverse landscapes providing a vivid setting.
Praya Lundberg, known for her work in international productions including acclaimed television series, stars opposite Rhys Meyers. The ensemble cast also includes Timothy V. Murphy, Lochlyn Munro, Tayme Thapthimthong and Florence Faivre, bringing together talent from multiple film markets. The production has highlighted its collaborative spirit and praised the professionalism of the Thai crew.
Producers have described the Thailand shoot as “unforgettable,” emphasising the country’s energy and scenic diversity as integral to the film’s aesthetic. With principal photography complete, Blood and Dust now moves into post-production ahead of planned global release, positioning the project as a cross-cultural action entry that showcases Southeast Asian locales within a compelling genre framework.
