Dramatic 70mph police chase through Tameside as officers arrest suspected Ford car thieves

Casey Affleck hasn’t been completely missing from films over the past several years, but you would really have to hunt down his movies to see them.

Cast has been set on sci-fi thriller Slingshot, with Casey Affleck (Manchester by the Sea), Laurence Fishburne (The Matrix) and Emily Beecham (Little Joe) leading the pic about an astronaut struggling to maintain his grip on reality aboard a possibly fatally compromised mission to Saturn’s moon, Titan.
