“Last Breath” continues an ongoing trend of fictionalized remakes of the events covered in a prior documentary. This movie uses the 2019 documentary of the same name as its basis. Both films were directed by Alex Parkinson, who uses real-life footage of the people involved during the closing credits of this fictionalized version.

The actor and his co-stars tell Newsweek about the challenges of playing real-life commercial divers on a high stakes mission.

A routine deep sea diving mission in the North Sea goes terribly wrong when a young diver is stranded some 300 feet below the surface in the new film “Last Breath.”
