Nate Foster (Daniel Radcliffe), a young, idealistic FBI agent, goes undercover to take down a radical right-wing terrorist group. The bright up-and-coming analyst must confront the challenge of sticking to a new identity while maintaining his real principles as he navigates the dangerous underworld of white supremacy. Inspired by real events, IMPERIUM stars Daniel Radcliffe, Toni Collette, Tracy Letts, with Nestor Carbonell, Burn Gorman and Sam Trammell and will be released by Lionsgate Premiere in theaters and on demand August 19.

Daniel Radcliffe: ‘People always say, “How does it feel to have grown up on screen?” And my answer has always been, I didn’t. Yes, I grew up on film sets, but my first kiss, my first girlfriend – that all happened very privately off camera. But that scene with Erin where we meet is genuinely a really lovely recording of us flirting with each other, us falling in love.’

‘I feel a lot more settled mentally, and am more comfortable with what makes me happy. More comfortable with the fact that I am a person that loves just hanging out with my friends. Or watching quiz shows. I am comfortable with the things about myself that I used to think, man, am I really boring? Should I be going out and getting wasted all the time?’

Dan: ‘This is going to sound really bad but it’s great doing a film where you have no responsibility to be the emotional centre.’

‘Walter is easily the best-dressed character I’ve ever played. He has an amazing collection of slippers and loafers, like ones in blue velvet with skulls on. And what’s great is they actually exist. Some company makes these rich, dickhead loafers. Who would actually go around wearing them? But they are so fantastic for character.’
