According to the official synopsis on IMDb, the film follows a retired former special force operative who tries to keep his son from being taken away by navigating the criminal world.
Luke Buckmaster from Guardian mentioned the film has a mechanical plot as if it was written by Artificial Intelligence. The article adds the death scenes have no meaningful emotional attachment and are merely represented as the “end of the prologue.”

Transfusion is written and directed by Matt Nable. The film is produced by 16 people including Samantha Allwinton, Christelle Conan, and Christelle Conan among others.

Sam Worthington plays the lead character Ryan in the film. Sam is a seasoned English-born Australian actor. He is best known for his appearance in Avatar, Terminator, Hacksaw Ridge, and Everest, among others.

Phoebe Tonkin Plays Justine
Justine is the wife of the lead character Ryan. Justine is the mother of Ryan’s son Billy and is pregnant with his second child. The subplot of the family of three hanging out together after some emotional backstory is used to showcase the soft side of Ryan.
Phoebe Tonkin plays Justine in the film Transfusion. Tonkin is an Australian actress best known for appearances in The Vampire Diaries. She has appeared in other projects including, Tomorrow, When the War Began, H2O: Just Add Water, and The Originals.
The actress made her acting debut with the 2006 television series H2O: Just Add Water, where she portrayed Cleo Sertori for 78 episodes between 2006 and 2010. Since her debut, Tonkin has amassed 25 acting credits on her IMDb profile.

Edward Carmody Plays Billy Logan
Billy Logan is the son of Ryan Logan in Transfusion. Billy is a key character in the plot of the film as his carelessness and tendency to get into trouble forces his father Ryan to get involved with the underworld criminals. Billy is portrayed by Gilbert Bradman as an eight-year-old and later by Edwards when he grows up.
Edward Carmody is a fresh actor. In fact, Transfusion is the actor’s debut film according to his IMDb profile. His Instagram account under username @edwardfridaycarmody has just shy of 1k followers at the time of writing this article. However, the number of his followers is expected to rise rapidly as his debut film Transfusion is doing very well in Australia.
On the other hand, 8-year-old Billy’s actor Gilbert Bradman has a spec more experience when it comes to acting compared to Edward. Bradman made his debut in 2019 with the television series Alphabet Street. He has since amassed 4 acting credits on his IMDb profile.
Matt Nable Plays Johnny
Johnny is Ryan’s first contact with the underworld. Johnny is a former SAS colleague who comes with an offer of a simple but illegal gig for Ryan to earn a few extra bucks. I do not recall when was the last time the easy illegal job was actually easy in a movie.
Matt Nable who portrays Johnny is actually the director and writer of the film as well. The former Rugby League player made his acting debut in the 2007 film The Final Winter. Since his debut, Matt has acquired 39 acting credits on his IMDb profile.
