Overview

• The film begins streaming on Netflix on Oct. 10, following the first official trailer released in late August.
• Knightley plays journalist Laura “Lo” Blacklock, who believes she saw a woman go overboard on a luxury yacht only to be told no one is missing.
• Early critiques from outlets including IndieWire, TheWrap, The Independent, Looper and others trend negative, pointing to hurried plotting, thin characterization and an underused ensemble.
• Cast interviews describe nausea from the yacht’s motion, cramped working spaces, cold English Channel conditions and a notorious “room of doom” with a pool-view glass wall.
• Simon Stone directs from a screenplay by Stone, Joe Shrapnel and Anna Waterhouse, with a starry cast featuring Guy Pearce, David Ajala, Kaya Scodelario and Hannah Waddingham in a tight 95‑minute thriller.
