Collider Interviews | Never Let Go: Halle Berry Was the Key to Alexandre Aja's New Fairy Tale Horror @ColliderInterviews | Uploaded September 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
Horror filmmaker Alexandre Aja made an infamous name for himself at midnight festival screenings of High Tension, his praised entry into the slasher genre. Since then, Aja has been a wildly prolific director and producer with cult favorites The Hills Have Eyes, Horns, Piranha 3D, and Crawl. Now, he's dipping his toes into the Gothic tradition with his new psychological (or perhaps supernatural) survival horror film, Never Let Go, starring Halle Berry.
Never Let Go tells the story of a mother (Berry) and her twin sons, played by big-screen newcomers Percy Daggs IV and Anthony B. Jenkins, suffering from the torment of a malicious spirit for many years. However, when one of the boys begins to doubt the existence of this evil, the family falls into turmoil, leading to a dangerous fight for survival.
In this interview, Collider's Steve Weintraub talks with Aja about including the subtle inspiration of Edgar Allan Poe, making sure your script is a complete story before shooting, and dreams of a high-concept giant-spider apocalypse blockbuster.
