I Came By release date
As it does for a number of its higher-profile film releases, Netflix is giving I Came By a short theatrical run before adding it to the streaming library.
The film will debut in select UK cinemas on Friday 19th August 2022 before its Netflix launch just under two weeks later on Wednesday 31st August 2022.
I Came By cast
The star-studded cast features a number of familiar faces from British film and television, with 1917's George Mackay leading the cast alongside The Innocents star Percelle Ascott – playing a pair of young graffiti artists.
In addition, there are key roles for Downton Abbey's Hugh Bonneville and Line of Duty's Kelly Macdonald, while Hard Sun's Varada Sethu is also featured in the ensemble.
I Came By plot
Set in modern-day London, the film is a crime thriller that Netflix says channels "classic Hitchcockian suspense" while telling a story dealing with contemporary themes such as Establishment privilege and corruption.
An official synopsis reads: "A pair of rebellious, young graffiti writers, Toby (Mackay) and Jay (Ascott) regularly target the homes of the UK’s wealthy elite and ruling class. When Toby breaks into the home of renowned former High Court Judge Sir Hector Blake (Bonneville) he discovers a shocking secret that leads him on a journey endangering himself and those closest to him."
