Neon Casts Jacob Tremblay and Others for Horror Film ‘4×4: The Event’ from ‘It Ends’ Director
Neon has unveiled the cast for the ‘It Ends’ director’s ‘4×4: The Event’, including Jaden Smith & Jacob Tremblay.
It Ends brings the endless nightmare to theaters this weekend via Neon. Though the film hasn’t yet been released, filmmaker Alex Ullom already has his next horror pic set up with the studio, titled 4×4: The Event. And now, we know who will star in the film, as Deadline reports that Sophia Lillis (It), Dylan Minnette (13 Reasons Why), Marcel Ruiz (One Day at a Time), Quintessa Swindell (Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma), Maddie Phillips (Gen V), Mitchell Cole (It Ends), Jaden Smith (The Karate Kid) and Jacob Tremblay (pictured above in Before I Wake) make up the cast.
That’s a great group for what sounds like a killer sophomore feature.
The cast includes:

The film “follows eight contestants as they enter an illegal sensory-assault livestream where they must kill or be killed using only what they can order online.”
The Long Walk…Battle Royale…Would You Rather. I love a good “last one standing” competition horror film, so this appears right up my alley.
