Cineverse secures North American distribution rights for 'Dragn'

Cineverse has secured the North American distribution rights for Dragn from Myriad Pictures.

The movie, directed by Peter Webber (Hannibal Rising), is penned by Barry Hutchison (Supermansion) and Alexander Gordon Smith (The Box).

Leading the cast are James Paxton (Twisters), Lilly Krug (Plane), Carlos Bardem (Assassin’s Creed), and Alice Pagani (Don’t Kill Me), with Jadran Malkovich (The Ark), Franz Drameh (Legends of Tomorrow), and Alex Lane (A Very Secret Service) also starring.

The story of Dragn unfolds as a normal corporate team-building trip for a group of colleagues, which spirals into a nightmare when they become the target of a rogue AI-controlled drone. 

It explores the frailty of the human psyche, the perils of AI warfare, and the unyielding courage needed to face off against fear in an ever-more digital world.

Dragn is produced by Alex Lane, Oleg Shardin, and Georgia Witkin. Executive Producers include Kirk D’Amico, Sandy Climan, Michael Tadross, Barry Hutchison, Alexander Gordon Smith, Joachim Laqueur, Igor Shardin, Vasiliy Lantsov, Carolin Springborn, and Aleksandr Alpern.

"This film merges contemporary tech fear with classic survival tension. Dragn tracks innocent employees whose simple forest getaway morphs into a relentless, high-stakes ordeal – perfectly aligning with today's sensibilities," Fisher commented in a statement.
