‘Heavenly Sword’ adaptation slices its way into UK

Nariko, Heavenly Sword’s flame-haired, cult-worshipped heroine, finally gets to slice and dice her way into British homes on June 15th, courtesy of TriCoast UK in association with Movie Partnership and Fusion Media. This is TriCoast’s first UK release and the kick-off release for the tri-distributor partnership, which sees Fusion Media handling the DVD release and The Movie Partnership piloting the digital platforms.

Based on a hugely popular Playstation 3, which has sold well over a million copies worldwide, the movie features the voices of Australian star Anna Torv (Fringe) as Nariko, Alfred Molina (Spiderman 2) as King Bohan and Thomas Jane (Hung, The Mist) as Loki.

A dramatic tale of revenge, Heavenly Sword follows the story of Nariko (Torv), a trained warrior who possesses a sought after blade with incredible powers. As the sword’s guardian, she must face a power-hungry ruler King Bohan (Molina) and his unyielding army, who are determined to obtain the powerful sword for themselves.

The DVD is packed with bonus footage including behind-the-scenes interviews with the cast and filmmakers. Heavenly Sword will be available in Asda stores nationwide and on iTunes, Amazon Instant Video, Sony Playstation, Xbox Video. Google Play and Virgin Movies on Demand
