EXCLUSIVE: Brandon Flynn (The Parenting), Elizabeth Perkins (Another Simple Favor), T.R. Knight (Grey’s Anatomy) and Ryan Powers (She-Hulk) are set to star in Deluxe Ocean View, a psychological horror film from director Bradley Bredeweg (The Fosters, Good Trouble), based on an original screenplay by Powers.
In the indie, set on the icy shores of Cape Cod, renowned exposé journalist Ethan Everett (Flynn) arrives at the empty luxury resort, Notre Joie, for a career-saving interview. But the off-season staff and guests — including the beguiling owner Vera (Perkins), unsettling manager Oliver (Knight), and charming drifter Johnny (Powers) — draw Ethan into a surreal maze of guilt, secrets, and waking nightmares that forces Ethan to confront horrors far greater than any story he’s ever uncovered. Inspired by classics like The Shining and Mulholland Drive, the film unravels a story of guilt, deception, and how far we’ll go to outrun the past.
Simona Paparelli Wolf (Thunderbolts, Thor: Love and Thunder) is producing under Sorry, Mom Pictures, alongside Powers for R U Mad At Me Productions and Emmy nominee Jason B. Stamey (WandaVision, Avengers: Endgame), who also served as casting director.
“I am honored to join this talented team of actors and producers to bring a bold, unsettling vision to life with this character-driven psychological horror,” said Bredeweg in a statement to Deadline. “As an LGBTQIA+ storyteller, I’m drawn to narratives that challenge norms and explore the complexities of identity, judgment and redemption. Written by the prolific Ryan Powers, this film terrifies me in all the right ways because it dares to ask a question we too often avoid: What drives a person to destroy their life in a single moment?”
Known for roles in 13 Reasons Why, the Max horror-comedy The Parenting, Apple’s Manhunt, Hulu’s 2022 reboot of Hellraiser and more, Flynn is repped by Paradigm, Untitled and Schreck Rose Dapello.
A three-time Emmy nominee known for roles in Weeds, Sharp Objects and the like, Perkins has most recently been seen in Prime Video’s Another Simple Favor as well as series like Minx, The Afterparty, and The Morning Show. She is repped by Gersh and Brillstein Entertainment Partners.
Knight is an Emmy nominee known for his role of Dr. George O’Malley on Grey’s Anatomy who has also recently been seen on shows like The Flight Attendant and Genius. He is repped by Buchwald, Authentic Talent and Literary Management, and Paul Hastings.
Powers’ credits include She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, The Madalorian, The Nice Guys, and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., to name just a few. He is repped by Atlanta Models and Talent.
A Television Academy Honoree and GLAAD Award winner, Bredeweg is best known for co-creating and showrunning The Fosters and its spinoff Good Trouble for Freeform and Hulu, as well as producing hit Broadway revivals and originals including Dear Evan Hansen, Moulin Rouge, Green Day’s American Idiot and the recent Scissorhandz on the West End. He is currently writing and directing a new Pat Benatar musical to premiere in New York City in 2026 and as a director, developed Life From the Other Side, a feature penned by Oscar-nominated screenwriter Paul Schrader.
