EXCLUSIVE: Aldis Hodge and Wunmi Mosaku are set to star in One Night Out for Amazon MGM Studios’ Orion Pictures. George Tillman Jr. will direct. The film will be available to stream on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide.
“I’ve wanted to work with Aldis and Wunmi for years. We’ve talked in the past about collaborating, but I’ve been looking for the right project for us to do together, and I’m very happy we found it in One Night Out,” said Tillman.
Nelson Greaves wrote the script with revisions by Lauren Schuker Blum and Rebecca Angelo. The film, based on a short story by Greaves, follows a married couple with marital issues who leave a babysitter at home with their three kids during a rare night out. When they see someone in their house on the nanny cam, the night goes horribly awry, and they must race home and work together to save their kids.
Tillman will produce along with Bob Teitel.
