WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

Twelve strangers are kidnapped and placed in a remote, unknown location where they are hunted for sport by a bunch of elite figures. However, their plan is threatened when one of the strangers, survivalist Crystal (Gilpin), turns out to know their game better than they do, and she soon turns the tables on her hunters as she tracks down the mysterious woman (Swank) at the heart of the entire conspiracy…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

Co-writer and producer Damon Lindelof presents his own version of The Most Dangerous Game, where he and fellow producer Jason Blum bring a much-needed update to the classic “humans hunted for sport” motif.
