Dust Bunny: A Family Horror Adventure Unveiled by Bryan Fuller
Bryan Fuller, the creator of the Hannibal TV series, has ventured into the world of family-oriented horror with his feature directorial debut, Dust Bunny. Lionsgate and Roadside Attractions are set to release the film in theaters on December 5th, and a trailer has been unveiled online. The movie stars Mads Mikkelsen and Sigourney Weaver in leading roles, promising a fantastical and inventive story that harks back to the family horror films of the 1980s. Dust Bunny follows a 10-year-old girl who teams up with her hit man neighbor to confront their own monsters.
In Dust Bunny, Aurora, the young protagonist, enlists the help of her mysterious neighbor, played by Mads Mikkelsen, who specializes in eliminating real-life monsters as a hit man. When Aurora suspects that a monster devoured her family, she seeks his assistance. As the neighbor realizes that Aurora's parents may have been targeted by assassins, he reluctantly takes on the task of protecting her, leading to a showdown with a wave of assassins and the revelation that some monsters are indeed real.
The cast of Dust Bunny includes David Dastmalchian and Sophie Sloan alongside Mikkelsen and Weaver. Weaver's character, despite her elegant costumes, is described as not being particularly kind. Produced by Bryan Fuller, Entertainment One, and Thunder Road's Basil Iwanyk and Erica Lee, Dust Bunny is set to premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival. The trailer release has generated anticipation for the film's theatrical debut in December, inviting audiences to experience a blend of horror, fantasy, and action on the big screen.
