“It’s gonna take more than two women to walk in off the street and rob the House of Parliament!” Will it? Workbus Films in the UK has revealed an official trailer for an indie heist thriller called The Whip, arriving in UK cinemas this September. For anyone unaware of how the UK government works, the title The Whip is a reference to the “Chief Whip” – the leader of the governing party in the House of Commons, with great power over the cabinet, being seen to speak at all times on behalf of the Prime Minister. Well timed with this trailer dropping around the same time as the big UK vote. With the looming threat of devastating welfare reforms, a full-time carer plots a daring heist from the Houses of Parliament in a bid to thwart the scheme, and bring the government crashing down with it. Their goal: to steal the Chief Whip’s little black book, filled with salacious dirt on those in power, and unleash a wave of scandal big enough to topple the scheme. The heist movie stars Shian Denovan, Gala Wesson, Tom Knight, Daniel Davids, with Ray Bullock Jr. Definitely has an indie low budget feel, but it also seems like they might just pull it off.
