Tomorrow sees the home video release of Sony’s Brightburn, the horror-infused superhero film that follows a young boy in rural America and what happens when he decides to be a lot less wholesome than Clark Kent.
To celebrate tomorrow’s release, we’ve got an exclusive clip that was shot at a junket in which the cast and crew talk about their favorite creepy kids from cinema history. It may come as no surprise but there’s a lot of love for The Shining. That being said, there are a few other movies named, so make sure to watch the above clip!
“What if a child from another world crash-landed on Earth, but instead of becoming a hero to mankind, he proved to be something far more sinister?“
David Yarovesky directs Brightburn from a screenplay penned by Brian Gunn and Mark Gunn; the film stars Elizabeth Banks, David Denman, and Matt Jones. James Gunn acts as producer.
Special Features:
- 3 “Quick Burns” Vignettes hosted by Actor Elizabeth Banks, Producer James Gunn & Director David Yarovesky
- “Hero-Horror!” featurette: It’s not often filmmakers successfully and seamlessly combine both Horror and Superhero into a genre-bending “Hero-Horror” category. Hear from Producer James Gunn and Screenwriters Brian and Mark Gunn as we will learn the methods of their filmmaking style and their dotting of the “i”’s and slashing of the “t”’s storytelling process.
- “Nature vs. Nurture” featurette: Hear from Actor Jackson A. Dunn, Producer James Gunn, Screenwriters Brian and Mark Gunn and understand the creative process involved in flipping the script of the traditional “Superhero” and diving into what motivates and moves our new Anti-hero, Brandon Breyer.
