Exclusive: Ryan Phillippe (American Murderer), Emile Hirsch (Once Upon a Time in Hollywood) and Mena Suvari (American Horror Story) will topline Kalahari, a new action thriller from Vertical, which has wrapped production.
Vertical fully financed the pic and has taken North American rights, with Voltage Pictures locking down rights for all international territories, preparing now to present the film to buyers at Cannes.
In the film written and directed by Mukunda Michael Dewil (Collide), a young couple is forced to flee their Christian missionary post in the Kalahari Desert aboard a rickety plane after an extremist militant group threatens their lives. Piloted by a corrupt smuggler (Hirsch), the plane loses power and crash-lands in the middle of an animal preserve populated by lions, leopards and hyenas. Injured, frightened, and being tracked by the extremists, this ragtag group must fight for their survival from both man and beast where only the strong will survive.

Collide follows a group of people as their night unfolds and their paths cross at an L.A. restaurant.
Drea de Matteo, who plays Angie, sat down with uInterview founder Erik Meers to discuss the film and working with Jim Gaffigan.

Drea de Matteo is back on our screens in new picture Collide, a thriller set across the course of one evening in an LA restaurant. To mark the film’s release we had the huge pleasure of speaking to the actress on Zoom, as she talks about the appeal of this latest project, and working with Jim Gaffigan, in a role unlike anything we’ve seen the comedian do before.
She talks about still feeling self-conscious on set, her favourite restaurant, whether she’s ever been on a blind date – and of course we discuss her iconic role in The Sopranos, and why to this day she is still happy to talk about, and share the series with fans.
