iBoy — Trailer

added: Thu, Jan 12th '17

A freak iPhone accident turns an ordinary teenager into a techno-powered vigilante in the trailer for "iBoy," Netflix's new original movie starring English actor Bill Milner (X-Men: First Class, Son of Rambow) and "Game of Thrones" star Maisie Williams.

Directed by English filmmaker Adam Randall (Level Up), "iBoy" is the feature film adaptation of Kevin Brooks' novel of the same name, about a dweeby 16-year-old boy (played by Milner) living the crime-ridden part of London who -- much like the origins of Spider-man -- secretly becomes a crime-fighter when a bizarre collision involving his iPhone inexplicably grants him special powers.

Rory Kinnear (Penny Dreadful, The Imitation Game) and Miranda Richardson (Sleepy Hollow, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire) co-star.

"iBoy" will start streaming globally on Friday, January 27th.
