Shana Feste’s horror-thriller, Run Sweetheart Run, from Blumhouse Productions and Automatik, will debut this October and may leave you apprehensive about going on a blind date ever again.
“Initially apprehensive when her boss insists she meets with one of his most important clients, single mom Cherie (Ella Balinska) is relieved and excited when she meets charismatic Ethan (Pilou Asbæk). The influential businessman defies expectations and sweeps Cherie off her feet. But at the end of the night, when the two are alone together, he reveals his true, violent nature. Battered and terrified, she flees for her life, beginning a relentless game of cat-and-mouse with a blood-thirsty assailant hell-bent on her utter destruction. In this edge-of-your-seat dark thriller, Cherie finds herself in the crosshairs of a conspiracy stranger and more evil than she could have ever imagined.”
Written and directed by Feste, Run Sweetheart Run stars Ella Balinska (Charlie’s Angels), Pilou Asbæk (“Game of Thrones”), Aml Ameen (The Maze Runner), Dayo Okeniyi (Shades of Blue), Betsy Brandt (“Breaking Bad”), Clark Gregg (The Avengers) and Shohreh Aghdashloo (Star Trek Beyond, House of Sand and Fog).
