The Girl in the Pool - Freddie Prinze Jr Thriller

Quiver Distribution announced today that they have partnered with Blacktop International to launch sales on psychological thriller The Girl in the Pool, starring Freddie Prinze Jr (I Know What You Did Last Summer, Scooby-Doo). The news comes with a first look image from the film.

The Girl in the Pool also stars Monica Potter (Along Came a Spider, “Parenthood”) and Kevin Pollak (The Usual Suspects, “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel”).

About the thriller: “A well-to-do family man is forced to struggle through a surprise birthday party moments after hiding the murdered corpse of his mistress.”

Dakota Gorman (“Teen Wolf”, “Criminal Minds”) directors the thriller from a script by Jackson Reid Williams.

“The Girl in the Pool is a surprising thriller that will keep audiences guessing right until the end,” said Quiver Distribution Co-Presidents Berry Meyerowitz and Jeff Sackman in a press release, who added that “Freddie Prinze Jr. delivers a remarkable performance as the unfaithful husband in a truly unfathomable predicament.”

“The Girl in the Pool is an amazing mix of whodunnit and psychological thriller that will take you to the verge of questioning your perception of reality,” said Blacktop International’s JD Beaufils. “The added value of Freddie Prinze Jr.’s return to the screen was also something we just could not miss out on. I am also delighted to finally be working with Quiver, a company that has been behind some of the most liked and successful independent genre films of the last few years.”

Larry Greenberg (The Wrath Of Becky), German Michael Torres (Kill Chain), RJ Collins (American Sicario) and Eric Brenner (Fear The Night) served as producers, while the executive producer roster includes Matthew Helderman, Luke Taylor and Tyler Gould from BondIt Media Capital, Johnathan Gorman, Nicole Rio, and Quiver Distribution’s Berry Meyerowitz and Jeff Sackman.

Danny Boyle and Alex Garland are reteaming for the long-awaited 28 Years Later horror sequel trilogy, and the first film in that new trilogy now has a release date.

28 Years Later arrives in theaters on June 20, 2025 from Sony.

Jack O’Connell (Amy Winehouse: Back To Black) has joined the previously announced Jodie Comer (Alone in the Dark, “Killing Eve”), Aaron Taylor-Johnson (Kraven the Hunter), and Ralph Fiennes (The Menu) in the upcoming 28 Years Later.

Alex Garland will write the first film and Boyle will return to direct. Nia DaCosta (Candyman, The Marvels) will direct the second installment in the trilogy from Sony Pictures.

Cillian Murphy (Oppenheimer) is on board as executive producer.

The original movie in 2002 starred Cillian Murphy and was written by Alex Garland and directed by Danny Boyle. In the smash hit horror film, “Four weeks after a mysterious, incurable virus spreads throughout the UK, a handful of survivors try to find sanctuary.”

A sequel, 28 Weeks Later, arrived in 2007. Juan Carlos Fresnadillo took over as director. In the sequel, which starred Jeremy Renner, “Six months after the rage virus was inflicted on the population of Great Britain, the US Army helps to secure a small area of London for the survivors to repopulate and start again. But not everything goes according to plan.”

Talks of a third installment in the franchise have been coming and going for the last several years now – at one point, it was going to be titled 28 Months Later – but it looks like this one is finally getting off the ground here in 2024. Stay tuned for more updates soon!
