After Adolescence, Stephen Graham is back to the thriller genre, this time in Heel, a twisted dark world where he chains a teen boy to fix his behavioural issues, starkly different from his character in the critically-acclaimed mini series released last year that recently won him a Golden Globe.

According to the plotline, Heel follows 19-year-old hooligan Tommy (Anson Boon), who revels in a life of drugs, parties, and violence. One night, on a bender with his reckless friends, he becomes separated from the group and is abducted by an unknown figure (Stephen Graham).

Though he is no stranger to inflicting violence, he is enraged and horrified when he wakes to find himself chained in the basement of the isolated suburban family home of Chris (Graham), his wife Kathryn (Andrea Riseborough), and their young son Jonathan (Kit Rakusen). The family sets out to reform Tommy's unruly behavior, forcing him to comply with their relentless mind games or seek escape at any cost.

The upcoming film is directed by Jan Komasa, who was nominated for Best International Feature at the 2019 Oscars for his film Corpus Christie. Heel premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival last year where it was known as Good Boy. However, another film on the same title was released a few months back.

Heel hits theatres on March 6.
