Cast
Guy Pearce as Snow:
A former government agent wrongly convicted of espionage against the United States.[5] After meeting with him for the first time, the directors commented that he was too skinny, but Pearce promised that he would "buff up". Pearce undertook a high-protein diet and weightlifting regime to increase his muscle mass, as he believed it was important that Snow look like a serious action hero.[6]
Maggie Grace as Emilie Warnock:
Daughter of The President of the United States.[5] Grace intended to perform as many of her own stunts as possible, and was required to learn stunt, combat, and wire work before filming began.[7][8] She was drawn to the role partly because of Besson, with whom she has worked twice previously, and because she saw the character as a "kick-ass" woman. Describing Emilie, Grace said she is a "capable young woman who knows how to negotiate her role as someone in a position of responsibility. She certainly has a strong world compass and she responds amazingly well under pressure. True, she's not exactly trained for the situation she finds herself in, but that's OK. There's still a strength about her in spite of that."[7]
Peter Stormare as Scott Langral:
The Chief of the Secret Service. Describing what drew him to the role, Stormare commented "the part was nice because it was like 'Wow, he's eluding me all the time. What is he up to? Is he really a bad guy or a good guy? What side is he on?' You never find out, which is kind of cool."[9]
Lennie James as Harry Shaw:
A Secret Service agent.[10]
Vincent Regan as Alex:
A prisoner and leader of the prison revolt.[10]
Joseph Gilgun as Hydell:
Alex's psychotic brother and fellow prisoner.[10]
The cast also includes Tim Plester as Mace, Snow's contact; Anne-Solenne Hatte as Kathryn; Jacky Ido as Hock, Emilie's bodyguard; Peter Hudson as President Warnock, Emilie's father; Mark Tankersley as Barnes, the prison Warden; and Miodrag Stevanovic as Frank Armstrong, a CIA agent.
Development
Principal photography was scheduled to begin on September 7, 2010,[11] in the Serbian capital city Belgrade.[7][12] Much of the filming used green screens, rather than practical sets.[7][12] The intended scenes were storyboarded in Dublin, Ireland to aid the actors in visualizing how the green screen scenes would appear after the completion of the CGI in post-production. Speaking about the experience, Grace stated: "You just have to suspend the voice in your head because you feel so silly reacting to nothing there. Having whole conversations with people that aren’t there. I felt a little crazy the first time around."[8]
Luc Besson produced the film. Besson also co-wrote the script with James Mather and Stephen St. Leger. Leger directed the film.[13]
FilmDistrict purchased the distribution rights to the film for a limited amount.[14] In December 2011, FilmDistrict reached a deal to distribute its 2012 films including Lockout through Open Road Films for a fee.
Release
The film was released on April 13, 2012, in North America.[4
