A first look at Line of Duty and Venom: Let There Be Carnage star Stephen Graham in the new movie Boiling Point has been released.

The upcoming film will see the actor take on the role of a head chef pushed to his limits, and has been confirmed for a release later in 2021.

In the first picture, which you can take a look at below, we see Graham's character Andy Jones look rather authoritative in a heated kitchen environment.

Boiling Point was filmed in one-take, with production wrapping up just before the first lockdown.

The full synopsis reads: "This is 'Magic Friday', the last Friday before Christmas and the busiest night of the year. Andy Jones, Head Chef at one of the top restaurants in London, is battling debts, addiction and an imploding personal life.

"The pressure is already on when health and safety services unexpectedly show up for inspection. Shot in a single take, in and out of a kitchen reaching boiling point."

The movie also stars Jason Flemyng (Snatch), Ray Panthaki (Marcella), Malachi Kirby (Small Axe) and Vinette Robinson (Star Wars), with Philip Barantini directing and James Cummings writing. Boiling Point is itself adapted from Barantini's short movie of the same name, also starring Graham.

As well as Boiling Point and the new Venom movie, Graham is due to appear in the new series of Peaky Blinders – with the first look at his mystery character revealed last month.

Boiling Point will be released later in 2021.
