Genre legend Sam Raimi’s Raimi Productions and Alex Lebovici’s Hammerstone Studios (2022 box-office hit Barbarian) are teaming up again with Christian Mercuri’s Capstone Studios to produce the new horror thriller Don’t Move.
Adam Schindler and Brian Netto will direct the film. The duo recently helmed episodes of Raimi’s horror anthology series “50 States of Fright.” Don’t Move is written by T.J. Cimfel and David White, who wrote the horror thriller Intruders starring Rory Culkin which was also directed by Schindler.
Don’t Move follows a seasoned killer who injects a grieving woman with a paralytic agent. She must run, fight and hide before her body completely shuts down.
Lebovici, Raimi, and Zainab Azizi will produce Don’t Move.
“It’s amazingly exciting for us to reunite with the genre master Sam Raimi, and Zainab Azizi, who yet again have found two extremely talented young filmmakers in Adam and Brian to bring Don’t Move to life. We are honored to be part of such a fantastic project,” said Hammerstone Studios’ Alex Lebovici.
Christian Mercuri, David Haring, Marc Manus, Adam Schindler, Brian Netto, and Petr Jákl will executive produce. Hammerstone is co-financing Don’t Move alongside Capstone, with Capstone Global handling worldwide rights.
Casting is currently underway.
“Alex and the team at Hammerstone as well as our friends at Capstone are the ideal production partners as we bring this compelling and twisted tale to light. I am delighted to collaborate again with our co-directors Adam and Brian on this incredibly frightening and tense story full of so many twists and turns. It will deliver a fantastic horror punch to the audience!” added Sam Raimi.
