As a passionate fan, I had the pleasure of contributing to the adaptation of the captivating Norwegian cult thriller “I Onde Dager.” Alongside me, Nick Kocher and Brian McElhaney were instrumental in crafting the script for this exhilarating tale. The exceptional cast, featuring Timothy Olyphant, Juliette Lewis, Paul Guilfoyle, and Keith Jardine, brought the story to life in a way that left me breathless.
87North Productions, known for its high-action projects led by David Leitch and Kelly McCormick, will team up with XYZ and Resolute Films on this production.
Acting sensation Jason Segel first gained popularity on the smash sitcom “How I Met Your Mother” and has an extensive background in movies, featuring roles in films such as “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” and “The Muppets”. Currently, he shares screen time with Harrison Ford on the Apple TV+ show titled “Shrinking”.
Coming up, Weaving has the sequel to her cult horror hit Ready or Not.

This movie promises a dark, twisted, and hilarious action-comedy ride, with an extraordinary cast that’s guaranteed to leave audiences gasping for more on the big screen.
Taccone expressed his excitement, stating, “I’m delighted to collaborate with Independent Film Company in distributing ‘Over Yoru Dead Body‘.

The success has been coming as IFC has delved deeper into genre films lately, with movies like “Late Night with the Devil” setting an opening weekend record for them back in 2023. This record was recently surpassed by “Clown in a Cornfield“, which debuted to $3.6 million earlier this month.
