CULVER CITY, California - February 3, 2022 - Amazon Studios announced today that production has started in Victoria, Australia on the upcoming Amazon Original film Foe.

Set in the near future when corporate power and environmental decay are ravaging the planet, Foe tells the story of Hen and Junior, a young, married couple living a solitary life on their isolated farm. One night, a knock on the door from a stranger named Terrance changes everything: Junior has been randomly selected to travel to a large, experimental space station orbiting Earth.
