What is the plot of Netflix's Spiderhead?
The action film sees Chris play the role of Steve Abnesti, a scientist described as a "brilliant visionary" who runs a futuristic penitentiary, named Spiderhead. A group of prisoners reside there, but what they don't know is that they're being tested on by Steve as part of his mysterious experiments.
Rather than being locked in a cell, as is the case with a regular prison, the inmates are free to roam the premises, but are often isolated and pumped with drugs as part of the experiment.
