Director Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day films, Freaky) returns to the thriller genre with Drop, tackling a blood-chilling first date. Starring Meghann Fahy (The White Lotus) and Brandon Sklenar (It Ends With Us), it will arrive in theaters April 11, 2025. The film is produced by Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes.
Drop follows Violet (Fahy), a widowed mother on her first date in years, who arrives at an upscale restaurant where she is relieved that her date, Henry (Sklenar) is more charming and handsome than she expected. But their chemistry begins to curdle as Violet begins being irritated and then terrorized by a series of anonymous drops to her phone.
She is instructed to tell nobody and follow instructions or the hooded figure she sees on her home security cameras will kill Violet’s young son and babysitting sister. Violet must do exactly as directed or everyone she loves will die. Her unseen tormentor’s final directive? Kill Henry.
The film also stars Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) and newcomer Jacob Robinson as Violet’s sister and son; with Reed Diamond (Moneyball), Gabrielle Ryan (Power Book IV: Force), Jeffery Self (Mack & Rita), Ed Weeks (The Mindy Project), and Travis Nelson (The Lake) as the restaurant’s staff and diners.
