Listen To A Post-Apocalyptic Podcast In DIDN’T DIE Trailer
The film premieres in March.
When it seems like everything’s been taken over by vampires lately, Level 33 Entertainment is out to prove that the zombie movie isn’t (un)dead yet. They’ve just released the first trailer for Didn’t Die, a new horror comedy set in the middle of an apocalypse with the most unlikely of protagonists: a podcaster.
Didn’t Die stars Kiran Deol as a podcast host struggling to keep her show going in the midst of an ongoing zombie apocalypse. Directed by Meera Menon, the film also stars George Basil, Samrat Chakrabarti, Katie McCuen, Vishal Vijayakumar, Ali Lopez-Sohaili and Kandis Erickson.
“I’m drawn to the question of what still makes life worth living when everything else has come undone,” Menon said of the film. “Being an indie filmmaker right now feels like podcasting in the middle of a zombie apocalypse—this film is about the grit it takes to simply keep going.”
Didn’t Die originally premiered as part of last year’s Sundance Film Festival in their Midnights category. The film is produced by Erica Fishman, Joe Camerota, and cinematographer Paul Gleason, with a score from Samuel Jones.
“As a performer, it’s such a privilege to get to play an arc — especially one grounded in wry humor,” Deol says. “Showcasing a South Asian family meant lots of dosas on set — which is a delicious way to make something revolutionary. From the collaborative style of developing the story, to staying in a house with the actors in upstate New York, Meera created an experience that felt like family coming together.”
