Elizabeth Banks and John C. Reilly are set to star in a new sci-fi psychological thriller titled DreamQuil, which was recently acquired by Republic Pictures.
The film is set in the not so distant future, and the story follows Carol (Banks), “a dissatisfied career mother, who is struggling to find real connection within her marriage to Gary (Reilly) and to her child.
“Worried that she could be heading towards divorce, Carol leaps at the chance to get her life back on track by signing up for DreamQuil’s unconventional digital wellness retreat.
“However, things take a sinister turn upon Carol’s homecoming, and the story has been described as a cautionary tale about what happens when Artificial Intelligence and automation are integrated into our daily lives.”
The movie is being directed by Alex Prager, who is making her directorial debut. The film is currently shooting in Los Angeles.
