Weaving setup for Wasp Thriller Hivemind
Samara Weaving and Nicholas Braun are set to dive into a world of buzzing chaos as they lead the environmental thriller Hivemind, a gripping story currently filming in Dublin.
The film promises a high-stakes adventure centered not on human conflict, but on the terrifying evolution of a new breed of killer wasps. In this unfolding environmental nightmare, small-town authorities must band together to confront a deadly threat that has rapidly escalated into a global outbreak, turning a natural phenomenon into an apocalyptic crisis.
The vision behind the project is helmed by Irish filmmaker Ciarán Foy, known for his intense work on films like Citadel and Sinister 2. Foy brings a sharp, dramatic sensibility to the tale of survival and escalating dread.
Behind the camera, the project is built by an impressive group of creative talents. The screenplay was penned by Peter Gaffney, and he is joined by a talented production team including Basil Iwanyk, Erica Lee, Diarmaid McGrath, Scott Strauss, Macdara Kelleher, Adam Rodin, and John Keville.
Production is set to take place across several studios, including Thunder Road, Badlands, Wild Atlantic Pictures, and Amazon MGM Studios. This broad collaboration ensures the film has the scope and scale required for a truly global thriller.
Plans are underway for a wide release, with the movie set to stream internationally on Prime Video, bringing the unsettling story to a global audience.
Samara Weaving brings her commanding presence to the role, following recent appearances in Ready or Not 2: Here I Come and Over Your Dead Body, and she is also slated to play Emma Frost in an upcoming Marvel film. Nicholas Braun, known for his powerful performance in Succession, joins the cast to explore the darker side of human cooperation under extreme duress.
