K.J. Yossman “Black Mirror‘s” Samuel Blenkin and “House of the Dragon” star Emily Carey have been cast as the leads in upcoming indie feature “Misper.” A darkly comic film, “Misper” follows Leonard Lowry (Blenkin) and his colleagues as they deal with the disappearance of their friend Elle Pritchard (Carey). “The employees of a dying seaside hotel have their lives upended when their colleague, Elle Pritchard vanishes,” reads the synopsis. “In a redirection of dramas featuring a missing person, the police investigation and focus on the perpetrator are traded for intimate and darkly comedic portrayals of the psychological impact on her co-workers.” “Mis-per” is a portmanteau for “missing person.” Joining Blenkin and Carey are Christine Bottomley (“Sherwood”) as Pam Shade, Daniel Ryan (“The Bay”) as Gary Jenkins and Oliver Ryan (“Dune Part One”) as Roy Pritchard along with from Sunil Patel, Rosalind Adler, Iona Champain and Jordan Brookes.

The film, which recently wrapped, was shot on location in Folkestone, U.K. Harry Sheriff directs in his feature debut. Laurence Tratalos wrote the screenplay. “I was instantly drawn to ‘Misper’s’ excellent script, which manages to capture the balance of horrifying reality and dark absurdist humour with aplomb,” said Blenkin. “I love it when a film doesn’t lean on humour, but instead uses it to intensify a story’s emotional punch – ‘Misper’ is filled with these moments.

Tratalos produces for Fresh Orange and Tom Leatherbarrow for Oskein alongside Carl Mason. Verity Naughton cast the picture, with Bart Bazaz as director of.
