We chat with TheBlackening stars Antoinette_Rob, SinquaWalls, and Grace Byers talk about the joys of running around in a spooky haunted house for their new horror comedy:
Horror gets skewered in The Blackening, the new comedy from director Tim Story . The familiar premise of "a bunch of people at a cabin in the woods get hunted by a masked killer" gets turned on its side by a simple twist that plays with the racial politics of the horror genre: the cast is entirely comprised of Black talent. Thus, the old horror adage of, "the Black person always dies first" gets put to the test, with hilarious and unpredictable results.
Antoinette Robertson: October to the end of November, right before Thanksgiving. It's been a while, yeah. Shout-out to one of our TV icons; I ran into Henry Winkler a while ago. It's not a name drop! Genuinely, he came to me and said, "congrats, man." He said, "Making a movie is like pushing a boulder up a hill. When you finally get to the top, you look around and you're like, 'I did it!'" So, I think, for all of us, we did it. From top to bottom. Not just in front of the camera, but also behind the camera, as well.
Screen Rant: Okay, you're doing a scene. Tim says "Cut! Back to one!" That's a thing directors say, I guess. And you've got ten-fifteen minutes while they're resetting. What do you do?
