‘Rupture’ Clip Pulls a ‘Clockwork Orange’
Rupture (read our review) is a science-fiction thriller about a single mother (Prometheus‘ Noomi Rapace) abducted by a terrifying and mysterious organization who reveal to her that humanity faces an unsettling threat from within. In this new clip, a man has his eyes pried open, in an homage to Stanley Kubrick’s A Clockwork Orange, where staring at pictures of his father are causing some sort of reaction inside his body. I am dying to know what comes next…
Rupture will be in theaters, VOD and Digital HD on April 28th.
Rupture stars Prometheus‘ Noomi Rapace, Michael Chiklis (Fantastic Four, The Shield), Peter Stormare (Clown, Fargo, 22 Jump Street, The Big Labowski), Kerry Bishé (Argo, Sex and the City), Lesley Manville (Maleficent, Mr. Turner, Another Year) and Ari Millen (Orphan Black, Exit Humanity, 12 Monkeys).
Steven Shainberg (Secretary) directs Rupture, which is based on his own story with Brian Nelson (Hard Candy, 30 Days of Night, Devil). Nelson wrote the screenplay.
Here’s the full synopsis:
Renee Morgan (Rapace), a single mom who lives with her twelve-year-old son Evan in a quiet suburban home, is terrified of spiders. Unbeknownst to both, their every move is being observed. While running her daily errands her car breaks down and she is violently kidnapped by a group of strangers. About 24 hours later, in an anonymous laboratory, she is tied up and questioned about her medical history, including her great fear of spiders. Soon her captors explain to her that her genetic abnormality can potentially allow her to “Rupture”, revealing her own true alien nature.
Check out an exclusive clip here that’s strapped Rapace in for a ride to face her fears.
Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”
Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach wrote the script.
Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
