Wasteman Premieres at TIFF and LFF
September 4, 2025Cal McMau’s feature debut, prison thriller Wasteman is set to World Premiere at Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) this September and its UK premiere will follow in October at London Film Festival.
The film is produced by Sophia Gibber and Myles Payne for Agile Films, and stars David Jonssson (Rye Lane, Alien Romulus, Industry) as Taylor and Tom Blyth (Billy the Kid, The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes) as Dee. In this emotionally charged story we follow parolee Taylor whose fresh start hopes are jeopardized by cellmate Dee’s arrival. As Dee takes Taylor under his wing, a vicious attack tests their bond, forcing Taylor to choose between protecting Dee and his own parole chances.
Behind the Scenes, OnSight provided a technical finish for the film. Our Senior Online Editor Adam Sample completed the conform and Online edit, before mastering and providing deliverables through our expert technical lab team for Bankside and Lionsgate. Working with Agile’s Post Producer Dominic Strachan and overseeing the OnSight workflow from start to finish was our Senior Post Producer Jade Townsend, ensuring smooth delivery at every stage.
