As its title might suggest, director Alejandro Brugués' The Inheritance takes the classic
format of family members gathering in a sprawling mansion for an
inheritance reading, only to find a killer in their midst. This one stars
Bob Gunton as a billionaire who gathers his offspring at the family
home on the night he believes someone (or something) is planning to kill
him.
Written by Joe Russo and Chris Lamont, the film also stars Peyton List, Briana Middleton, Rachel Nichols, Austin Stowell, David
Walton, Resse Alexander
and Chris Wood.
The Inheritance is in US cinemas and on VOD from July 12th.
A UK/ROI release has yet to be announced.
Check out the trailer below.
The official synopsis reads:
On the eve of his 75th birthday, billionaire Charles Abernathy invites his estranged children back home out of fear that tonight someone or something is going to kill him. He puts each of their inheritances on the line, to ensure they'll help keep him alive.
