Neon has booked domestic distribution rights to the Riley Keough thriller “The Lodge,” which premiered Friday night in the midnight section of the Sundance Film Festival. The deal is worth just under $2 million, according to an individual familiar with the negotiations.
The film, which should hit theaters in 2019, is the English-language debut of Austrian writer-directors Severin Fiala and Veronika Franz, who first made a splash with the 2014 German-language horror film “Goodnight Mommy.”
In the film, Lia McHugh and Jaeden Lieberher (“It”) star as siblings who are snowed in a remote cabin with the much younger woman (Keough) whom their dad (Richard Armitage) plans to marry after dumping their mom (Alicia Silverstone.
