Up next from Under the Shadow and Wounds director Babak Anvari is psychological thriller Hallow Road, and Deadline has unveiled a trio of first look images that introduce stars Rosamund Pike (Saltburn) and Matthew Rhys (Perry Mason).
William Gillies wrote the screenplay for Hallow Road.
In the film, “two parents enter a race against time when they receive a distressing late-night phone call from their daughter after she caused a tragic car accident.”
The new images introduce Pike and Perry, both looking intense. It’s also worth noting that the images take place within a car; perhaps this psychological thriller takes place within a single, unexpected location?
Anvari previously said of the project, “I treasure the opportunity to collaborate with Rosamund and Matthew, two hugely talented actors who I’ve long admired, on Hallow Road. I believe we can create something emotionally intense, and charged with uncanny terror, that nevertheless taps into something relatable to all families. I can’t wait to bring Will’s wonderful script to life with this brilliant team.”
Deadline also notes that the film was shot in Ireland and Prague in November 2023, just two months after it was announced that Anvari had been enlisted to helm the official Cloverfield sequel. News has been extremely quiet on that front, so the status of that sequel isn’t clear. Here’s to hoping Hallow Road might bring a firmer update there.
Now that first look images at Hallow Road have arrived, expect to hear more about this psychological thriller soon.
