\n\tEXCLUSIVE: Fresh off his critically lauded role in HBO\u2019s Task, Tom Pelphrey<\/a> has inked a deal to star opposite Vanessa Kirby and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II in Liminal<\/a>, Apple<\/a>\u2018s sci-fi action-thriller from director Louis Leterrier which we recently scooped<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tNo word yet on the role Pelphrey will be playing, nor the plot of the film. It\u2019s based on the AWA graphic novel Telepaths by Eisner Award winner J. Michael Straczynski, Steve Epting and Brian Reber, which takes place in a world where a tenth of the population suddenly gains telepathic powers as a result of an electromagnetic disturbance. <\/p>\n

\n\tHailing from Apple Studios, Liminal is written by Justin Rhodes (Terminator: Dark Fate). Zach Studin will produce for AWA Studios, alongside Kevin Walsh for The Walsh Company via his overall deal with Apple Studios<\/a>. Ray Angelic will exec produce alongside Straczynski, Epting and Reber, with Patrick McNamara co-producing for The Walsh Company. Juliet Kirby is also co-producing.<\/p>\n

\n\tExpect Pelphrey to be an ongoing presence in the awards race this season with his starring role opposite Mark Ruffalo in Task, HBO\u2019s crime drama from Mare of Easttown\u2018s Brad Ingelsby. His role as Robbie Prendergrast, a Philadelphia area garbage collector turned trap house robber who is hunted by the FBI, has already earned him a Critics Choice Award nomination, following Critics Choice and Emmy noms for his work in Netflix\u2019s Ozark.<\/p>\n

\n\tUpcoming, Pelphrey will also be seen starring alongside Grant Gustin in the dark comedy Rooster from Mills McQueen. He is repped by Gersh, Brillstein Entertainment Partners, and Sloan, Offer, Weber & Dern.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"EXCLUSIVE: Fresh off his critically lauded role in HBO\u2019s Task, Tom Pelphrey has inked a deal to star…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":383781,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[670,458,146,85,46,174200,18079],"class_list":["post-383780","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-apple","tag-celebrities","tag-entertainment","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-liminal","tag-tom-pelphrey"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/383780","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=383780"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/383780\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/383781"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=383780"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=383780"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=383780"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
