2019 Sundance Film Festival Predictions: #64. Jacob Estes – Only You

Published on November 22, 2018

Jacob Estes could be making it a Sundance trifecta with Mean Creek (2004) and The Details (2011) being joined Only You – a horror, sci-fi, thriller that is without details in terms of plot or release dates. Starring Storm Reid, Mykelti Williamson and David Oyelowo, production took place in July of 2017 with Jason Blum backing the project. Knowing the Blumhouse – they’ll want to let this cat out of the bag with a bang, and a Sundance preem a la Get Out would do the trick.

Gist: Unknown.

Production Co./Producers: Blumhouse Productions’ Jason Blum (BlacKkKlansman).

Prediction: Secret Screening in the Midnight section or Premieres.

U.S. Distributor: Rights Available. TBD (domestic). TBD (international).
