Deadline says:
Millennium Entertainment’s CEO Bill Lee announced today that the company has acquired North American rights to Juan Carlos Fresnadillo’s chilling Intruders, which had its world premiere at the 2011 Toronto Film Festival, followed by a European premiere in San Sebastian.
We Got This Covered
So yeah – I dug Intruders. It offers a genre hybrid with relentless substance, and does so through gripping, chilly tension. Too many twists can kill a film, but Adam Schindler’s direction ensures that each reveal is trickled out at this proper moment, in an effort to maximize pacing and suspense. The filmmaker makes proper use of the ideas writers T.J. Cimfel and David White dream up, and leads viewers into a deadly home with a basement full of secrets.
Entertainment Weekly
In Intruders, Rory Culkin plays a delivery man caught between three home invaders (Jack Kesy, Joshua Mikel, and Martin Starr) and a grief-stricken young woman (Beth Riesgraf), who proves surprisingly adept at thwarting the trio’s malevolent intentions.
Deadline:
Morgan Freeman has come aboard Millennium Entertainment’s Cold Warriors with director Raja Gosnell attached to direct. The spy action/comedy is about a retired CIA agent who enlists the help of his video game programmer stepson to finish a Cold War era mission.
The production company is currently looking to cast the stepson role, described as gamer who forgoes a video game conference in Paris to join a search after he discovers that his stepfather (Freeman) is a former CIA agent. The storyline is Taken meets Get Smart, hence Gosnell who has directed a string of comedies. Todd Berger (Happytime Murders) scripted.
Everything sounds better in Morgan Freemans voice... EVERYTHING.
Bet he could talk anyone into bed.
