Trevante Rhodes (Bruiser, Bird Box), Sean Sagar (The Gentlemen), Nick Sagar (The Princess Switch), and RonReaco Lee (Nappily Ever After) are also starring. Perry says to Tudum, “I adore all of the classic thrillers from the ’80s and ’90s, so that’s how this concept occurred to me.
Perry claims that working with Rowland, his leading woman and co-producer, pushed him, but in a positive manner. “I’ve never collaborated with someone who brought so many amazing ideas to the table,” he claims. “She was amazing as a producer.” Rowland expressed to Tudum that she shared Perry’s sentiments and that the filmmaker was always willing to consider her own concepts. Working with him was really simple, and if he expressed uncertainty, he would respond with, “Well, let’s talk about it and then let’s do it.” But communication was the key to everything.
