Synopsis for Infinity Pool

James and Em are young, rich, in love, and on vacation. Their all-inclusive resort boasts island tours and gleaming beaches. But outside of the hotel gates waits something much more dangerous and seductive, beyond the edge of paradise.

Principal photography is set to begin on September 6th. The film marks NEON’s latest collaboration with Cronenberg following the critically acclaimed sci-fi psychological horror Possessor. NEON and Topic Studios have also partnered on Pablo Larrain’s Spencer, starring Kristen Stewart at Princess Diana. Hengameh Panahi of Celluloid Dreams brokered the deal between NEON and the producers. NEON will release Infinity Pool in the U.S. and Elevation Pictures will release the film in Canada.
