Hollywood-based Epic Pictures Group is set to release the sci-fi thriller SPACE/TIME across North America. The film will be available on January 13, 2026 to rent or purchase on video-on-demand (VOD) including on Apple TV.
SPACE/TIME was directed by the award-winning Michael O’Halloran from a script co-written with Adam Harmer. The film stars Ashlee Lollback (Bloody Hell), Hugh Parker (Elvis), Pacharo Mzembe (Nautilus), Haroon Jafarey-Hall, Rob Horton (Take My Hand), Shaun King (Luca), Craig Gaffney (Break the Rock), Sophia Emberson-Bain (Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire), Gareth Harris (Casualty), Robin Darch (Goodbye, Tiger), Erin Connor (When Love Springs), Damien Campagnolo (Expats), Madison Sturgess (The Wilted Rose), Loretta Kung (Irreverent) & Cate Feldmann (Tidelands). Mohworks Films served as the production company.
What is the cost of scientific progress? That’s the question at the heart of SPACE/TIME. The official synopsis reads: In a future on the brink of collapse, a team of scientists unveils a space-bending engine that could save humanity. The first test ends in disaster, leaving the project shut down and its creators disgraced. Refusing to let their work vanish, Holt (Parker), a brilliant but ruthless visionary, and his ambitious assistant, Liv (Lollback), turn to the criminal underworld to rebuild the device. As they race against time and the law, the engine becomes more than a chance at survival, it becomes an obsession. With humanity’s future hanging in the balance, the team must face a haunting question: will their creation deliver salvation, or unleash something far worse?
“SPACE/TIME delivers a gripping sci-fi spectacle of staggering visuals while quietly challenging us to consider how far humanity will go in the name of discovery,” says Epic Pictures Group CEO Patrick Ewald. “It is truly an ambitious and intense cinematic journey shaped by the remarkable vision of director Michael O’Halloran.”
Director Michael O’Halloran adds “What I love about low-budget sci-fi is that it forces you to think big with very little. SPACE/TIME came out of that space where the limitations pushed us to be more inventive. We wanted the film to capture the rush of discovering something impossible, that moment when the world suddenly feels bigger and the characters are pushed to make choices about what matters most to them.”
