In an alternate present where human biology has taken precedence over technology, the sci-fi thriller Altered thrusts viewers into a visually stunning, dystopian Earth divided by genetic enhancements.
Directed by Timo Vuorensola (visionary director of Iron Sky), the film is set in a world where a nuclear war – sparked by the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis – led humanity to prioritize genetic development over technological progress. This created a severe class system: the genetically improved “genetics” who are the elite, and the “specials,” the roughly 10% of the population who are unmodified outcasts.
The story follows a few brave souls who are determined to level the playing field for everyone, but every revolution comes with a heavy cost .
Mama’s Geeky ‘Altered’ Exclusive Clip – “Where’s The Next Attack”
In this intense and heart-pounding one-and-a-half-minute-long exclusive clip, we see the film’s protagonist, Leon (Tom Felton), deeply engaged in a crucial conversation about the brewing conflict. Leon, a quick-witted inventor who refuses to play by the rules, discusses the extremist anti-genetic squad’s next move while confirming the police are actively searching for them.
As the pressure mounts and the pieces click into place, Leon has a sudden moment of chilling realization: the next devastating attack will be at the family planning center. This clip perfectly showcases the film’s high stakes, suspenseful atmosphere, and Felton’s nuanced performance as the reluctant hero.
The biggest draw for many is seeing Harry Potter franchise star Tom Felton in the lead role of Leon. Felton portrays Leon, one of the oppressed “specials” who is bound to a wheelchair due to a childhood injury. Despite this, Leon is a proud and talented inventor, spending his days crafting intricate mechanical devices in his workshop to help other “specials” survive .
Tom Felton’s character, Leon, fights back using ingenuity: his handmade, glowing exoskeleton suit is powered by the rare Genesis flower, making it a potent symbol of resistance against the oppressive genetic elite and, as the director notes, giving Leon back his dignity. Director Timo Vuorensola praised Felton for having everything he was looking for in a protagonist: “humor, strength, vulnerability, and charisma,” making him a perfect match for the role.
