‘Land’ Trailer: Robin Wright Retreats From One Wilderness Into Another In Her Directorial Debut

Robin Wright has certainly made her mark in front of the camera. She was the subject of Cary Elwes’ affection and left him—quite literally—rolling in “The Princess Bride.” She also played the same kind of role opposite Tom Hanks in “Forrest Gump,” beckoning him and generations of film fanatics to get those legs moving!

‘Come Play’ Trailer: Gillian Jacobs Must Save Her Son From An Evil Presence That Uses An iPad

The new trailer for “Come Play” initially hides its horrifying plot by showcasing how great the use of iPads and smartphones can be for children on the spectrum, especially in the case of young Oliver, who is mute and only communicates through whatever handheld device he has on him.

Though Universal seems to be getting a lot of the headlines about leading the way with releasing films directly onto VOD in lieu of a full theatrical release (due to COVID-19), Focus Features might be the studio that is expanding its Premium VOD (PVOD) strategy more than anyone else.
