Exclusive: Cameras have started rolling in Sofia, Bulgaria, on the survival-thriller Savage Hunt from Dutch filmmaker Roel Reiné (Halo).
The pic comes from a screenplay penned by Chad Law and Christopher Jolley. The story follows a vengeful tracker who is brought in to hunt down a large grizzly bear, which has begun attacking humans when a new local resort begins construction, disrupting the natural habitat of the wildlife.
The production has told us they are currently using a real grizzly bear on location as part of the shoot.
“We wanted to strive for as much realism as possible, showing how powerful nature can be, and the effects of man encroaching on an animal’s natural environment,” producers said.
Film Bridge International has sales rights to the pic and will introduce it to buyers at the forthcoming Cannes market. Producing the pic are United Film’s Gabriel Georgiev, Ellen Wander, and...

DeWanda Wise plays a mother terrorized by a sinister stuffed toy bear that looks to possess her youngest stepdaughter in the trailer for the horror thriller Imaginary from Blumhouse Productions and Lionsgate that dropped on Thursday.
Wise’s Jessica moves back into her childhood home with her family, only to have her youngest stepdaughter Alice (Pyper Braun) develop an eerie attachment to a stuffed bear named Chauncey she finds in the basement. Alice starts playing games with Chauncey that begin playful, only to become increasingly sinister.
As Alice’s behavior becomes more and more concerning, Jessica intervenes and realizes Chauncey is much more than the furry toy she believed him to be. The trailer reveals Alice’s eerily lifelike stuffed bear is an “imaginary friend” from her own childhood she long ago left behind while growing up and is now unhappy she abandoned him.
“You were always playing with your imaginary friend.
