SC Films International announced that the psychological thriller, Breeder, has been greenlit. The film is co-produced and financed by Rabbits Black, while SC Films is representing the international rights. Alex Goyette is set to direct, based on his own script, with production beginning on February 18th in Vancouver.

Blending tension, intrigue, and a dash of dark humor, Breeder delves into the ethical boundaries of modern science. The story follows Russell, a dedicated researcher who has spent years developing a revolutionary gene-editing solution to save the endangered bee population. Struggling with limited funding, Russell’s prospects brighten when a dog breeder, Patti, offers to sponsor his work. Drawn into her isolated ranch, Russell soon realizes that Patti’s ambitions extend far beyond saving bees. Her unsettling agenda includes breeding not just dogs – but humans – with Russell as her unwitting subject. Faced with a harrowing choice, Russell must decide whether to remain for or risk everything to escape her grip.

The cast includes Daniel Doheny as Russell (“Lucky Hank”, “Loudermilk”, “Alex Strangelove”), Maddie Phillips (“Gen V”, “The Boys”, “Teenage Bounty Hunters”), Tanaya Beatty (“Yellowstone”, Crimes of the Future), and Dot-Marie Jones as the enigmatic Patti (“Glee”, Bros).
