Editor's Note: The following contains spoilers for Depravity
From one of the creative minds behind the Academy Award-nominated film The Fighter and Guy Ritchie's The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare comes a Hitchcockian thriller "for a new generation." Before his feature debut, Depravity, hit streaming, Oscar-nominee and writer-director Paul Tamasy joined Collider's Steve Weintraub for a post-screening Q&A to share some career highlights, the making of the film, and what audiences can expect from him next.
Starring Victoria Justice, Dermot Mulroney, Taylor John Smith, and Devon Ross, Tamasy's script for Depravity upends audiences' expectations until the very last scene. This trio finds themselves in hot water when they break into the apartment of their neighbor, who they suspect to be a serial killer. When their break-in goes south, these roommates land themselves in a twisted game that leaves them fighting for survival.
During this spoiler-filled conversation, Tamasy digs into the plot twists in the movie, the big swings he was willing to take, and the deleted scenes he wishes were still in the final cut. He discusses his career from co-writing one of the late '90s most iconic family films, Air Bud, to introducing his eight-year-old to a full method Christian Bale on the set of The Fighter.
