All Fun and Games, starring Asa Butterfield (Sex Education) and Natalia Dyer (Stranger Things), is beginning production today in Canada, with Anthony and Joe Russo executive producing. The cast also includes Benjamin Evan Ainsworth, whose title role is in Disney’s upcoming live-action Pinocchio, Keith David (Greenleaf), and Annabeth Gish (Fall of the House of Usher).
With Anton and AGBO Production producing the film, the latter will go through the Gozie AGBO banner. The title is already creating a buzz among buyers at recent EFM markets in Berlin.
The story will follow two kids as they play a game with their sadistic older cousin and awaken a cruel being known as “The Skarrow.” Co-directors are Ari Costa (second unit on Extraction and Avengers: Endgame) and Eren Celeboglu (The Internet Kills).
“All Fun And Games is a great summer movie for young audiences,” said Cecile Gaget, president of international production, distributions at Anton. “Our international distributors have shown their confidence in the popularity of this genre by acquiring the film at this early stage.”
It will be Anton and AGBO’s first project together. Anton’s thriller Choose or Die, also starring Asa Butterfield, is set to release on Netflix on April 15th. Gozie AGBO’s newest launch, Everything Everywhere All at Once, will expand to U.S. theatres on April 7th.
Production for All Fun and Games began on April 7th.
