‘Run Sweetheart Run’ Chased Out of May Release

Run Sweetheart Run

This past January’s Sundance Film Festival kicked off with Shana Feste‘s “social horror” film Run Sweetheart Run, which our very own Meagan Navarro called “an entertaining battle soaked in blood.

Described as Get Out meets Rosemary’s Baby, the terror begins when a blind date turns violent and the woman (Ella Balinska) has to get home through Los Angeles, with her date (Pilou Asbaek) in pursuit.

Bloody Disgusting learned this morning that OTL Releasing and Blumhouse Tilt will no longer be releasing the film in theaters on May 8, 2020, as announced back in February. Watch for a new date is it comes in.

Feste previously told EW that, in her early 20s, she went on a date with a man “who looked incredible on paper,” she recalls, but “it went bad very quickly, and I think at, like, one in the morning, I ended up running out of his house in the Hollywood Hills.” With no shoes, no phone, and no purse, Feste ran all the way home to West L.A. in her little black dress.

“That night was terrifying and illuminating,” she says. “People that I didn’t think were going to help me did help me, and the people I thought were going to help me didn’t really help me so much as they could have. It was almost — what happened on foot, going back to my house — worse than what happened on the date.”

Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.

Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things),  Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.

The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).

Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.

Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.

Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.

In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
