Paramount+ has announced today that Antoine Fuqua's upcoming sci-fi actioner Infinite, which stars 2x Academy Award-nominee Mark Wahlberg (The Fighter; The Departed), will arrive on the burgeoning streaming service on June 10.
The title, which is an adaptation of D. Eric Maikranz's 2009 novel The Reincarnationist Papers, was originally slated to open in theaters last September before being indefinitely delayed due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. Paramount made the decision to send it to their new streaming platform at the top of this month.
The film's official synopsis reads,
"Infinite follows Evan McCauley (Wahlberg), a guy who is haunted daily by skills he has never learned and the memories of places he’s never visited. Self-medicated and on the brink of a mental breakdown, he is rescued by a secret group whose members call themselves “Infinites.” They reveal to him that his memories are real – but they are from multiple past lives.
The Infinites bring Evan into their extraordinary world, where a gifted few are given the ability to be reborn with their memories and knowledge accumulated over centuries. With critical secrets buried in his past, Evan must work with the Infinites to unlock the answers in his memories in a race against time to save humanity from one of their own (Chiwetel Ejiofor) who seeks to destroy it."
In addition to Wahlberg as Evan McCauley, the cast features Chiwetel Ejiofor as Ted, Sophie Cookson as Tammy, Dylan O'Brien as Heinrich Treadway, Rupert Friend as Bathurst, Jason Mantzoukas as Peabody, Liz Carr as Garrick, Toby Jones as Kent, Jóhannes Haukur Jóhannesson as Kovic, Tom Hughes as Abel, Wallis Day as Shin, and Kae Alexander as Trace.
