Christopher Landon Takes You Behind the Scenes of ‘Drop’ in New Featurette

Director Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) gives a behind-the-scenes look at his upcoming film Drop in the new featurette below.

“I wrote a film called Disturbia, which was Hitchcock by way of John Hughes. This felt like the evolution of that kind of a film,” Landon explains. “It straddles Hitchcock, but it’s also very much like a ’90s thriller, but it’s using very modern technology.”

Produced by Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes, the horror-thriller drops in theaters on April 11 from Universal.

Meghann Fahy (“The White Lotus”) and Brandon Sklenar (It Ends With Us) star as a couple on a blind first-date whose romantic dinner spirals into a deadly game of cat-and-mouse in which everyone’s a suspect.

“Violet, a widowed mother on her first date in years,  arrives at an upscale restaurant where she is relieved that her date, Henry is more charming and handsome than she expected. But their chemistry begins to curdle as Violet begins being irritated and then terrorized by a series of anonymous drops to her phone.

“She is instructed to tell nobody and follow instructions or the hooded figure she sees on her home security cameras will kill Violet’s young son and babysitting sister. Violet must do exactly as directed or everyone she loves will die. Her unseen tormentor’s final directive? Kill Henry.”

Violett Beane, Jacob Robinson, Reed Diamond, Gabrielle Ryan, Jeffery Self, Ed Weeks, and Travis Nelson round out the cast.

Drop is written by Jillian Jacobs & Christopher Roach (Truth or Dare, Fantasy Island).
