Published

on

Dave Franco makes his directorial debut with IFC’s horror film The Rental, starring Alison Brie (“GLOW”) and Dan Stevens (The Guest, Apostle). Like they did with the creature feature The Wretched, IFC is bringing The Rental to select drive-in theaters across the country on July 24, 2020, and it’ll also be coming to On Demand services on that same date.

A trailer is promised this Thursday, but for now, enjoy this incredibly brief teaser in which the couples arrive at the rental… a cabin in the woods.

Also, this coming Thursday, June 18 at 8:30 PM, those in Los Angeles can take part in a one-night-only pop-up at the ArcLight Cinemas at Vineland Drive-In. You can purchase tickets here.

The Rental is a character-driven horror thriller about two couples who rent a vacation home for what should be a celebratory weekend get-away.

“Two couples looking to celebrate their seed money from a new business venture, embark on a weekend getaway to a seemingly perfect house they’ve booked online. But what begins as a festive weekend for the four close friends turns into something far more sinister as secrets they’ve kept from each other are exposed and paranoia grows that they may not be alone.”

Sheila Vand (A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night) and Jeremy Allen White (“Shameless”) co-star.

Franco wrote the script with Joe Swanberg (Drinking Buddies, Happy Christmas).

Jennifer Lopez stars in Atlas, which will likely be streamed for 100 billion minutes in its first week of release. Whatever that means. It’s coming exclusively to Netflix on May 24.

“The film follows Atlas, a woman fighting for humanity in a future where an AI soldier has determined the only way to end war is to end humanity. To outthink this rogue AI, Atlas must work with the one thing she fears most — another AI.”

The upcoming science fiction film’s cast also includes Simu Liu, Sterling K. Brown, Gregory James Cohan, Abraham Popoola, Lana Parrilla and Mark Strong.

Peyton said in a recent statement, “Having the chance to direct Jennifer Lopez in the title role of this movie is a dream come true, as I know she’ll bring the incredible strength, depth and authenticity we’ve all come to admire from her work.”

Leo Sardarian wrote the original script, with the latest draft by Aron Eli Coleite.

Producers for the Netflix genre movie include Peyton, Lopez, Jeff Fierson, Joby Harold, Tory Tunnell, Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas, Benny Medina, Greg Berlanti and Sarah Schechter.
