Paramount+ to launch with new Mark Wahlberg film Infinite
Feature film Infinite, starring Mark Wahlberg, will premiere on Paramount+ on the day it launches locally, Wednesday, 11 August 2021.
The announcement:
Hot on the heels of its debut in the US, Paramount+ will exclusively premiere feature film Infinite, starring Mark Wahlberg, when the service launches in Australia on Wednesday, 11 August.
From Paramount Pictures, Infinite is the most watched movie to date on the US Paramount+ service.
Starring Mark Wahlberg, Infinite is a high-octane sci-fi action film that delves into the concept of reincarnation through spectacular visuals and nuanced characters who must use memories and skills from past lives to ensure the future.
Alongside Mark Wahlberg, Infinite stars Chiwetel Ejiofor, Sophie Cookson, Jason Mantzoukas, Rupert Friend, Liz Carr, with Toby Jones and Dylan O’Brien.
For Evan McCauley (Mark Wahlberg), skills he has never learned and memories of places he has never visited haunt his daily life. Self-medicated and on the brink of a mental breakdown, Evan is sought by a secret group that call themselves “Infinites,” revealing to him that his memories may be real—but they are from multiple past lives.
Based on the book, The Reincarnationist Papers, by D. Eric Maikranz, Infinite is directed by Antoine Fuqua.
Priced at just $8.99 per month, subscribers will have access to more than 20,000 episodes and blockbuster movies throughout the year with Paramount+ delighting Australian audiences with unique stories, iconic stars and a mountain of entertainment.
