Hot off the global box office hit Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, Mexican actor Diego Luna stars as the intensely private and complex character of Ray in Columbia Pictures' new suspense thriller Flatliners (in Philippine cinemas Friday, Sept. 29).
In the film, five medical students, obsessed by the mystery of what lies beyond the confines of life, embark on a daring and dangerous experiment: by stopping their hearts for short periods of time, each triggers a near-death experience – giving them a firsthand account of the afterlife. But as their experiments become increasingly perilous, they are each haunted by the sins of their pasts, brought on by the paranormal consequences of trespassing to the other side.
“Ray is the only one of the group with real life experience,” explains producer Laurence Mark. “He’s older than the others, and he’s somewhat rougher around the edges. He didn’t grow up privileged, didn’t attend an Ivy League School. He was a fireman who saw a lot of pain and suffering. At first, he has trouble understanding why his colleagues would want to experiment in a way he finds cavalier and reckless – but he ultimately can’t help participating – especially when his fellow students need him and his experience to revive them.”
