To celebrate the release of Arcadian, which opens in UK cinemas this week, we sat down with some of its young cast to learn about this critically acclaimed new post-apocalyptic tale.
In a near future, normal life on Earth has been decimated. Paul (Nicolas Cage) and his two sons, Thomas and Joseph, have been living a half-life – tranquility by day and torment by night. Every night, after the sun sets, they face the unrelenting attacks of a mysterious and violent evil. One day, when Thomas doesn’t return home before sundown, Paul must leave the safety of their fortified farm to find him. A nightmarish battle ensues that forces the family to execute a desperate plan to survive.
Chatting to Sadie Soverall (Charlotte), we discuss the appeal of the script, why it is very different from other alien/creature invasion films you may have seen, why the human story at the heart of the film will pull at the heartstrings, working with the titan that is Nicolas Cage and the advice he gave them, and much more. Also, we had to ask about Fate: The Winx Saga, her Netflix show that finished last year…
