Sky Original Film has set its release date for Get Away – the upcoming horror comedy starring, written and produced by Nick Frost (Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz) and directed by Steffen Haars (New Kids Turbo) in the UK. XYZ Films financed and handled worldwide sales on Get Away, which it produced with Wayward Entertainment. Sky Original Film will launch the title on Sky Cinema on 10th January 2025.

Set in Sweden, Get Away follows a family’s holiday to a remote getaway – but the trip takes an unexpected turn when they discover the island they’re on is inhabited by a serial killer. Frost stars alongside Aisling Bea (“This Way Up”), Sebastian Croft (“Heartstopper”), and newcomer Maisie Ayres ("Criminal Record"). Nick Spicer, Aram Tertzakian, and Maxime Cottray of XYZ Films produced alongside John Hegeman of Wayward Entertainment, Lee Kim of Resolute Films and Frost. The co-producer is Richard Kondal for Big Safari, with executive producers Vince Totino of Wayward Entertainment, Patrick Fischer of Creativity Capital, Nate Bolotin and Pip Ngo of XYZ Films, alongside Julia Stuart and Laura Grange of Sky Original Film.

Julia Stuart, Director of Original Film at Sky, said: “Get Away is the first film that Nick has both written and starred in, and his passion for the project has infused every element – making it something really special. The film has all the hallmarks fans enjoy about Nick’s dark comedy horrors – laugh out loud fun, twisted surprises and outrageous gore – along with a stellar, best-of-British ensemble cast. We know our audiences are going to love taking a trip on this killer family holiday together.”

Nick Frost added: “The chance to bring the film to Sky and to be part of their Originals team feels a little too good to be true. It feels like the perfect place to snuggle up and watch a huge ball of comedy horror. Dig in!"
