Freddie Prinze Jr, Shelley Hennig, Sasha Pieterse Film Gets Deals

EXCLUSIVE: Principal photography has wrapped on Killing Time, the psychological home-invasion thriller starring Freddie Prinze Jr., Shelley Hennig, Sasha Pieterse, William Moseley, Michael Evans Behling and Michael Sirow.

Directed by Joshua Friedman from a screenplay by Ward Anderson and Marc Morgenstern, the film will be released by Quiver Distribution in North America in 2027. The Exchange will handle international sales at the upcoming AFM.

Reimagining the psychological warfare of Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? as a home-invasion thriller, Killing Time “follows a couple on the run following a bank robbery and murder spree who seek refuge in the home of an affluent married couple. But as the night unfolds, the fugitives discover that their seemingly well-heeled hosts harbor secrets of their own, setting the stage for a volatile confrontation in which the lines between predator and prey become increasingly blurred.”

The film marks the final production from producer Linda Duncombe, who passed away last month.

Pic is produced by Larry Greenberg, Eric Brenner, Raja Collins, Linda Duncombe, German Michael Torres and Joshua Friedman. Executive producers are Berry Meyerowitz, Jeff Sackman and Eduard Osipov.

“Killing Time is a tribute to the hard work and dedication of producer Linda Duncombe, who tragically passed away last month” said Quiver’s Larry Greenberg, “We have been developing this project for five years, and it finally took the passion of star Freddie Prinze Jr., who worked with Quiver on 2024’s surprise hit The Girl in the Pool, and the vision of director Joshua Friedman to bring it to life.”

“Freddie, Shelley, Sasha, and William brought everything this film needed — charm, menace, and the ability to turn on a dime” said director Joshua Friedman, “Watching them go at each other across a living room was the whole movie. As for Linda, she believed in this film from the start and fought beside me to get it made — and for that this film will always be sacred to me.”
