Ever After is headed to theaters in the US and Canada on September 4th from Level 33 Entertainment, and Kane Hodder takes Daily Dead readers on an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at his voice acting for the Big Bad Wolf!
From the Press Release: “Five horror legends share the screen for the first time in EVER AFTER, the star-studded fairy tale nightmare from writer/director Laszlo Illes, which has been acquired by Level 33 Entertainment for an exclusive U.S. and Canadian theatrical release this September 4, 2026.
Starring Mark Sheppard (Supernatural), Bonnie Aarons (The Nun), Michael Berryman (The Hills Have Eyes), Kane Hodder (Friday the 13th) and Malcolm McDowell (A Clockwork Orange), EVER AFTER transforms the beloved characters of classic fairy tales into relentless killers in a suspense-filled survival nightmare.
A bachelorette weekend at a secluded forest lodge quickly descends into terror when a group of friends discovers that the surrounding woods are inhabited by murderous fanatics who believe they are the heroes and villains of childhood fairy tales. Little Red Riding Hood, the Big Bad Wolf, the Evil Witch, Prince Charming and other familiar figures emerge from the darkness, turning childhood stories into a brutal fight for survival where every fairy tale ends in blood.
Produced by Intergalactic Pictures, McClurg Productions, Harambee Grey-Sun Productions, Stag Mountain Films and Avali Productions, EVER AFTER combines practical creature effects, large-scale set pieces and one of the most recognizable ensemble casts assembled in independent horror in recent years, delivering an original and unpredictable cinematic experience for genre fans.
Writer/Director Laszlo Iles stated, “As a lifelong horror fan, working with Mark Sheppard, Bonnie Aarons, Michael Berryman, Kane Hodder and Malcolm McDowell was something I could only dream about for many years. Watching these incredible actors bring our twisted fairy tale world to life was an unforgettable experience and one of the greatest highlights of my career. Every one of them gave everything to their characters, and I couldn’t be more proud of what we created together. I sincerely hope horror fans around the world will enjoy this dark and unpredictable journey as much as we enjoyed making it.”
Added Andreas Olavarria, President & CEO of Level 33 Entertainment, “EVER AFTER immediately stood out as a bold and imaginative horror film with an outstanding cast of genre favorites. It takes familiar fairy tale characters and transforms them into unforgettable nightmares while delivering exactly the kind of thrilling theatrical experience horror audiences love. We’re excited to bring this unique vision to theaters across the United States and Canada.”
EVER AFTER will open exclusively in theaters across the United States and Canada on September 4, 2026 before continuing its worldwide rollout. The acquisition was negotiated by Laszlo Illes and co-producer Luis Chen on behalf of the filmmakers, and by Andreas Olavarria and Taryn Procsal on behalf of Level 33 Entertainment.”
