The Big Picture From writer/director Tilman Singer, the horror thriller Cuckoo follows 17-year-old Gretchen , as she tries to figure out where she fits into the life her father has chosen to live with his new family at a resort in the German Alps. What promises to be a tranquil change of scenery quickly becomes anything but, as the rebellious teenager clashes with Herr König , an uncomfortably creepy man who is clearly not interested in what’s best for her or her family.
Director Tilman Singer Cast Hunter Schafer , Dan Stevens , Jessica Henwick , Marton Csokas , Astrid Bergès-Frisbey , Greta Fernández , Kalin Morrow , Mila Lieu Runtime 102 Minutes Release Date August 9, 2024 Writers Tilman Singer 'Cuckoo' Takes Inspiration From Filmmakers David Lynch and David Cronenberg Close Collider: This film is the brand of weird that reminds me of David Lynch and even Legion.
SCHAFER: That was one of the scary anticipations going into this. This was my first movie and my first time working on a set that wasn’t Euphoria. There were all these things running through my head like, “This is gonna be really intense. Am I gonna be able to do this? This is a completely different environment and different format.” But the people I made this movie with were such a beautiful group of people that really felt like a family by the end, and it happened really fast.
SCHAFER: Yeah. I just loved watching Dan work. It was really impressive. I had two years between when I got the role and when we actually filmed the project, but Dan came in very, very close to when we started shooting. SCHAFER: Yeah, and he was able to bring this character to life in that amount of time. It was just so exciting, anticipating what he was going to do as Herr König on set, every day when he came to work. Everyone was really excited to see that.
SCHAFER: I don’t know because it’s a new experience. I felt it when there was a gap with COVID, in between Season 1 and Season 2. With this gap, I'm excited because between Seasons 1 and 2, I didn’t work on anything, but between Seasons 2 and 3, I’ve been able to jump around and really experience what making a movie is like and playing different characters. I have to be totally honest, I wasn’t really sold on keeping up the whole acting thing.
