When we first heard about the horror thriller project Run Rabbit Run back in 2020, The Invisible Man‘s Elisabeth Moss was set to star in the film – but by the time it went into production, Emmy nominee Sarah Snook, best known for her role on the HBO series Succession, had taken the lead. The film will be available to watch through the Netflix streaming service as of June 28th, and with that date swiftly approaching Netflix has unveiled a trailer. You can check it out in the embed above.

Following a premiere at Sundance 2023, where Netflix picked up the psychological horror film for an undisclosed sum, the streaming service has set a June 28 release date and unveiled the first trailer for "Run Rabbit Run." With Sarah Snook ("Succession") in the lead, Australian director Daina Reid's second feature film is about a single mother and fertility doctor named Sarah (Snook) who is shaken by her 7-year-old daughter Mia's (Lily Latorre) strange behavior and "inexplicable memories of a past identity."
The connection, as the "Run Rabbit Run" trailer reveals, is Sarah's late sister Alice who had an interest in wild rabbits and went missing when she was just seven years old. Mia turns out to have both things in common with Alice when she takes a liking to a rabbit that appears on their doorstep. You know where this is going, right?

Audiences at this month’s Flickerfest will be treated to a taste of an upcoming feature from director Jasmin Tarasin and writer John Collee.
Proof-of-concept short film The Story of Lee Ping provides a snapshot of the world that will be featured in Tarasin’s upcoming feature debut, which is based on novel ‘The Burial’ by Courtney Collins.
Set in the rural backlots of 1920s Australia, the 14-minute drama follows a young Chinese woman (Jillian Nguyen) who is imprisoned as an erotic dancer.
As she plots her freedom, Lee meets Jack (Mark Coles Smith), an Aboriginal farmhand who changes her perspective.
The film was produced by Lucy Maclaren and Jo McNulty-Clark, with Stephen Vineberg, Deanne Weir and Oliver Lawrance serving as executive producers.
Tarasin said she was inspired to tell the back stories of two minor characters from what will become the feature as they explored similar themes to the main story.

Simon Baker, Yael Stone, Josh Lawson and newcomer Julia Savage are among the key cast of director Del Kathryn Barton’s debut feature Blaze (formerly Puff), which recently wrapped shooting in Sydney.
Barton, a dual Archibald prize winner, wrote the script with Huna Amweero (Jade of Death), with the work inspired by Barton’s painting ‘sing blood-wings sing’, which was in turn inspired by Peter Paul and Mary song ‘Puff, the Magic Dragon’.
A hybrid work of live-action, VFX and animation, Blaze sees Savage plays a young girl who accidentally witnesses a woman being violently attacked, leaving her catatonic with shock and struggling to make sense of what she saw.
She retreats into imaginary worlds, where Zephyr, the shimmering magic dragon who has been her companion since childhood, allows her to activate her own rage and ultimately find renewal.
Also starring are Morgan Davies, Bernie Van Tiel, Remy Hii, John Waters,...

Deanne Weir.
In Monday’s Guardian, veteran producer John Edwards eloquently explains how commercial Fta television drama quotas have acted as a critical floor underneath some of the most iconic Australian drama series of recent years.
Those quotas were temporarily suspended last week in response to the Covid-19 driven shutdown of the television production sector, which will likely make it impossible for some Fta networks to meet those requirements for 2020.
While the production sector fears this suspension represents an existential threat to the future of Australian television drama, the networks argue that the current quota system is outdated and burdensome, as the production funding obligations it imposes no longer reflect the commercial and audience realities of drama consumption in a streaming world.
This argument about dollars and regulatory symmetry will play out in coming weeks as the industry debates an options paper examining what future regulatory settings should look like...

In news that seemed all but inevitable, the Sydney Film Festival, scheduled for June 3 – 14, has been cancelled due to Covid-19 concerns.
In a joint statement, festival chair Deanne Weir, CEO Leigh Small and festival director Nashen Moodley expressed their regret, and solidarity with the filmmaking, festival and arts community. It is the first time the festival has not gone ahead in its 67 year history.
“The decision to cancel this year’s Sydney Film Festival follows a review of the most up to date advice regarding ways to minimise the spread of the Coronavirus, and the New South Wales Public Health (Covid-19 Public Events) order banning events of 500 people, which is in place until 14 June. In this rapidly evolving and unknown environment, the Sff board and management know this is the only responsible decision – albeit a devastating one. However, the health and safety of our community is our first concern,” they said.
