\n\tEXCLUSIVE: God of Tides<\/a>, an indie inspired by the true story of world-class freediver and spear fisherman Virgil Price III, will star Grant Gustin<\/a> (The Flash) as Virgil, with Campbell Scott<\/a> (House of Cards), Rainey Qualley<\/a> (Green River Killer), and Elias Koteas<\/a> (Chicago P.D.) also aboard for roles.<\/p>\n

\n\tWritten by Maria Topete<\/a> and Cruz Angeles<\/a>, who also directs, God of Tides follows Virgil (Gustin), once a promising musician, now at a crossroads, haunted by alcoholism, failure and fractured family relationships. Determined to reinvent himself as a competitive free diver, he is drawn to the depths of the ocean as a sanctuary from his inner turmoil. But the ocean is unforgiving, and as he plunges into the world of freediving, he faces not only the physical challenges of the sport but the harrowing depths of his own psyche.<\/p>\n

\n\tScott plays Virgil\u2019s father Big Virgil, with Qualley as his sister Ash, and Koteas as his sobriety guide Walker.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cGod of Tides explores the themes of gratitude, acceptance and the resilience of the human spirit,\u201d Angeles said. \u201cIt\u2019s an absolute honor to be working with such an amazing cast to tell Virgil\u2019s story.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tGod of Tides is produced by Virgil Price II of Sterling Productions (Don\u2019t Let Me Drown, Lovely, Still), Jamin O\u2019Brien, and Ged Dickersin.<\/p>\n

\n\tBest known for his leading role in The CW\u2019s The Flash and soon to be seen in Mills McQueen\u2019s comedy Rooster, Gustin is represented by CAA and Robert Stein Management.<\/p>\n

\n\tScott\u2019s decades-long career has seen him appear in films like Big Night and Singles, along with shows like House of Cards. He is represented by Untitled Entertainment.<\/p>\n

\n\tQualley is an actress and musician who will next be seen in Green River Killer opposite Vincent Kartheiser and Night Driver opposite Armie Hammer. She is represented by Paradigm and Management Production Entertainment.<\/p>\n

\n\tKoteas is known for his memorable performances over the past five decades in such films as The Thin Red Line and Living Out Loud, and most recently for a recurring role on Chicago P.D. He is represented by Innovative Artists and Kipperman Management.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"EXCLUSIVE: God of Tides, an indie inspired by the true story of world-class freediver and spear fisherman Virgil…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":479317,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[52],"tags":[221443,221444,221445,88,221446,221447,221448,206,221449],"class_list":["post-479316","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-campbell-scott","tag-cruz-angeles","tag-elias-koteas","tag-entertainment","tag-god-of-tides","tag-grant-gustin","tag-maria-topete","tag-movies","tag-rainey-qualley"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/479316","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=479316"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/479316\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/479317"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=479316"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=479316"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=479316"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
