Rounding out the cast is Kila Lord Cassidy (The Wonder), Elaine Cassidy (The Wonder), Michael Socha (Papillon), Aiysha Hart (Mogul Mowgli), Nell Hudson (Texas Chainsaw Massacre) and Barry Ward (Extra Ordinary). Former World Champion boxer Carl Froch has been training Kebbell and LaBeouf at Penarth ABC boxing gym and will have a cameo in the film.

Kebbel plays Sal, aka “The Bull”, a washed-up boxer on the brink of 40 who is fighting more than his opponents. With a life of regrets and fading dreams, his chance at redemption comes knocking in the form of illegal boxing, introduced by the sudden return of his old friend, Vince (Labeouf). Sal faces a dilemma: seize the shot at resurgence or preserve the bond with his daughter, Molly (Lord Cassidy).

Salvable marks the debut feature of UK-based directing duo Franklin & Marchetta (Björn Franklin & Johnny Marchetta), known for their music video work. Producers are Jamie Gamache and Connor O’Hara for Lowkey Films, and Julien Loeffler and James Kermack for Featuristic Films. Casting has been conducted by Aisling Knight of CBA Casting. Simon Plunket is the Director of Photography.

Production finance was supplied by Principal Film Finance, Moo Studios Inc, Lipsync Productions & Violator Cinema Distribution. Executive producers are Will Machin, Sam Parker and Michael Yates for Metro, Tom George for Principal Film Finance, Jeremy Walton and David Lyons for Moo Studios Inc, Norman Merry, Peter Hampden and Mark Foligno for Lipsync Productions, Juraj Barabas and Aleksey Ageyev for Violator and Elora Thevenet.
