The film is directed by Steven Sterlacchini & Steve Green, is based on the work of Carlos Ezquerra, John Wagner and Alan Grant.

As we previously reported, this project is a not for profit fan film based on the 2000AD story, “Strontium Dog”, first published in Starlord and the work of the much-praised team behind the not-for-profit fan film Judge Minty, set in the Judge Dredd universe.
