Some films land with a whisper. Others explode out of the gate.
Thor Moreno’s Die Again Tomorrow is the latter—a stylish, high-voltage thriller that’s been racking up praise on the international festival circuit and building serious momentum ahead of its summer 2025 release. With Best Picture buzz already swirling and early audiences calling it Moreno’s most audacious work yet, this is one of those rare films that arrives fully charged.
The premise alone is enough to pique interest: a desperate man, the boss’s girl, and a plan to run that turns into a blood-soaked descent into a back-lit hell. It’s got danger. It’s got heat. It’s got that final thirty seconds people won’t stop talking about. But what’s really got critics and festival juries hooked? The way Moreno delivers it—with grit, style, and the confidence of a filmmaker in full command of his tools.
Coming off the back of VOODUN—which picked up Best Picture wins at both the Dublin and Melbourne Film Festivals—Moreno is no stranger to global acclaim. But Die Again Tomorrow marks a shift. It’s tighter, bolder, more kinetic. It is a film that doesn’t wait for permission—it kicks the door down.

At recent festival screenings, press and fans alike have praised the film’s sweaty tension, sharp pacing, and visually arresting camerawork. Moreno leans into his strengths here: tight character work, explosive moments of violence, and visual storytelling that oozes the atmosphere. You don’t just watch the story unfold—you feel it press against your chest.
And while Die Again Tomorrow wears its genre influences with pride—classic noir, crime thrillers, grindhouse flicks—it still feels wholly modern. There’s a bite to it. A now-ness. It knows what it’s doing, and it’s not trying to be polite about it.
With more festivals on the horizon and distribution talk already heating up, the writing’s on the wall: this is going to be one of the films people talk about this summer. For fans of gritty thrillers, neon-noir, or just flat-out bold filmmaking, Die Again Tomorrow should already be on your radar.
