Blumhouse and Automatik’s supernatural horror movie, Run Sweetheart Run, which made its world premiere at this year’s Sundance Film Festival, has been acquired by Amazon for a Prime Video release.
Run Sweetheart Run involves a blind date which suddenly turns violent and the woman has to get home on foot through Los Angeles as she’s pursued by her date. The film stars Ella Balinska (Charlie’s Angels), Pilou Asbæk (Game of Thrones), Aml Ameen (The Maze Runner), Dayo Okeniyi (Shades of Blue) and Betsy Brandt (Breaking Bad), with Clark Gregg (Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD) and Shohreh Aghdashloo (Star Trek Beyond).
Run Sweetheart Run, which was written and directed by Shana Feste, was originally scheduled to hit theatres via OTL Releasing and Blumhouse Tilt on May 8th before the film was pulled from release back in April.
“As crazy as audiences may find the film protagonist’s experience, I wrote and directed a film that is based on a very personal story for me and I’m thrilled that a global audience will have the chance to see it soon on Amazon Prime,” said Feste. “I’m also grateful to my friends at Universal and Blumhouse for their unending support of the film.”
A premiere date for Run Sweetheart Run on Amazon Prime Video hasn’t been announced as of yet.
