Ready or Not follows the story of a young bride who is invited on the night of her wedding by her rich and eccentric in-laws to participate in a time-honored tradition that turns into a lethal game of survival with everyone fighting to stay alive.
Weaving leads a cast that also includes Andie MacDowell (Groundhog Day), Adam Brody (Shazam!), Mark O’Brien (Halt and Catch Fire), Henry Czerny (Revenge), Kristian Bruun (Orphan Black), Melanie Scrofano (Wynonna Earp) and Elyse Levesque (The Originals).
Last year, Fox Searchlight acquired the rights for the film in an intense bidding war against other studios. Ready or Not will be directed by directing team duo Tyler Gillett and Matt Bettinelli-Oplin of the filmmaking group Radio Silence. The film’s script was co-written by Guy Busick and Ryan Murphy.
The producers are Tripp Vinson of Vinson Films and James Vanderbilt, Bradley Fischer, and William Sherak of Mythology Entertainment. Tara Farney, Tracey Nyberg, and Radio Silence’s Chad Villella are the film’s executive producers.
