LAS VEGAS — (12-30-23) — Jacob Elordi, Zachary Quinto and Patrick J. Adams star in the True-Life Serial Killer Thriller ‘He Went That Way’, the upcoming crime drama from Mister Smith Entertainment and Vertical Entertainment. The first and final film from director and DP Jeffrey Darling, who passed away in March 2022, is set in 1964 and follows 19-year-old serial killer Bobby as he is picked up by a celebrity animal handler, Jim, on Route 66.
As stress between the two continues to boil and their fiery personalities explode, the road only becomes more treacherous the farther they go.
Vertical has acquired the U.S. rights to the true-life serial killer story about celebrity animal trainer Dave Pitts, his famous TV chimp, Spanky — who served as the centerpiece of the traveling entertainment show, The Ice Capades and, their fateful three-day encounter with serial killer Larry Lee Ranes.
The script was written by Evan M. Wiener and produced by Marc Benardout, Hugh Broder, Jeremy L Kotin, James Harris and Mark Lane for Teashop Productions.
Executive producers on the project are Jacob Elordi, Zachary Quinto, Phil Hunt of Head Gear Films and Bohemia Media, Compton Ross, Lawrence August, Ananyaa Shah, Medha Jaishankar, Lisa Broder and Richard Broder.
The thriller film is set to be released in theaters and on streaming platforms on January 5, 2024.
