Doom
Based on the legendary first-person PC Shooter, this sci-fi horror stars Karl Urban and Dwayne Johnson as members of a Space Marines unit sent to investigate the mysterious events in a research facility on Mars that has ceased all communication with scientists. What the squad discovers is a monstrosity that their vast firepower may not be able to hold back. Co-stars Rosamund Pike and Deobia Oparei (who would go on to co-star with Urban again for 2012’s Dredd).
