Hoult portrays The Order's leader, Bob Mathews.

Speaking at the film's world premiere at the Venice International Film Festival in September, Law said that The Order "felt like a piece of work that needed to be made now".

"It's always interesting looking back, but it's always interesting finding a piece from the past that has some relative relationship to the present day," he added.

The Order opens in cinemas on Friday 27 December.
