Previously known as Fail-Safe.
Brie Larson stars in the film. Producer Drew Simon said the following about the casting: "I’m beyond excited to see Brie take on this role – it’s frightening, emotionally charged, and so different from anything she’s done before. The depth and intensity this character demands is immense, and I know Brie’s going to bring something unforgettable to the screen." (5/16/25)
Producer J.J. Abrams said the following about the project: "With Fail-Safe, Brian Duffield has written an absolute powerhouse of a script. It’s a horror film that is as sweet and moving as it is terrifying. To have JT Mollner in the director’s chair — his Strange Darling blew me away — is a dream come true. Finally, having the limitlessly talented Brie Larson as our star sets up Fail-Safe to be that rare horror film that makes you laugh, feel, and care, before taking you on an absolutely wild ride." (5/16/25)
Directed by JT Mollner (Outlaws and Angels, Strange Darling).
Scripted by Brian Duffield (The Babysitter, Underwater, Spontaneous, Love and Monsters, No One Will Save You).
It's said that the story is told from the perspective of a young boy.
