The British electronic music group Hybrid is currently scoring the upcoming thriller Take Down. The film is directed by Jim Gillespie (I Know What You Did Last Summer, Eye See You) and stars Ed Westwick, Jeremy Sumpter, Phoebe Tonkin and Dominic Sherwood. The movie focuses on the wayward sons and daughters of international billionaires, who have been sent by their frustrated parents to a boot camp on a remote island, when they are taken hostage and held for a billion dollar ransom by a group of sophisticated kidnappers. Alexander Ignon (Ransom) has written the screenplay. Sarah Ryan Black (Restoration, 100 Feet) and Ed Elbert (Anna and the King, Martian Child) are producing the Pinewood Pictures production. Hybrid are best known for their electronic music records and have scored films including Vice, Dead in Tombstone and Catacombs. They also composed additional music for various movies, including Harry Gregson-Williams’ scores for Total Recall, X-Men Origins: Wolverine and The Equalizer. Take Down is currently in post-production and is expected to be released later this year.
