Oscar nominee Hugh Jackman (Logan, X-Men franchise) plays Nick Bannister, a private investigator, but unlike the trench coat-wearing detectives of old, he specializes in helping his clients access lost memories. Living on the fringes of the sunken Miami coast, he navigates the minds of his clients, sifting through the darkly alluring world of their pasts in search of specific memories. However, his life is forever changed when he takes on beautiful new client Mae, played by Rebecca Ferguson (upcoming Dune, Mission: Impossible movies). What starts as a simple matter of lost and found soon becomes a dangerous obsession, and as Bannister fights to find the truth about Mae's disappearance, he uncovers a violent conspiracy.
Inspired by the loss of her own grandfather while expecting her first child, Reminiscence is written, directed and produced by Lisa Joy (HBO’s Westworld). Visiting his home after his passing, she was reminded of an odd detail that had captivated her since childhood.
Reminiscence is set to the compelling music of composer Ramin Djawadi (HBO’s Game of Thrones, HBO’s Westworld), with a cast that includes Thandiwe Newton (HBO’s Westworld, Solo: A Star Wars Story), Cliff Curtis (The Meg, Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw), Oscar nominee Marina de Tavira (Roma), Daniel Wu (TV’s Into the Badlands, Warcraft), Mojean Aria (TV’s See, Dead Lucky), Brett Cullen (Joker), Natalie Martinez (The Stand, The Fugitive series), Angela Sarafyan (HBO’s Westworld) and Nico Parker (Dumbo).
Lisa Joy makes her feature film directing debut with Reminiscence, directed from her own original screenplay. The film was produced by Joy, Jonathan Nolan, Michael De Luca and Aaron Ryder.
