💨 Abstract

"Wasteman" is a gritty UK prison thriller starring David Jonsson and Tom Blyth as cellmates Taylor and Dee. Filmed in a real prison with ex-incarcerated actors, the film avoids glorifying violence, focusing instead on the harsh realities of prison life and systemic flaws. The cast, including Alex Hassell, embraced raw, unscripted moments for authenticity. Jonsson, who joined as producer, highlights the film’s socio-political message about societal failures.
