Legend Of The Muse helmer John Burr is back with his sophomore feature, The Gates. Lionsgate is touting a theatrical release for March 13 with a cast led by Mason Gooding, Algee Smith and Keith Powers, and with none other than the late James Van Der Beek in what looks to be a gripping posthumous send-off in the new thriller.
The Gates follows three college students — Derek, Kevin, and Tyon (Gooding, Smith, and Powers) on a road trip gone wrong, as the three young men take an ill-advised shortcut through a remote gated community, where they find themselves trapped behind the walls after witnessing a murder. Over the course of the night, they find themselves blamed, hunted, and fractured by their own differing belief systems, while the perpetrator—James Van Der Beek, at his most charming and terrifying—emerges as the cunning patriarch that holds the entire community under his influence.
Lionsgate presents, an Indy Entertainment & Core 4 Films production, in association with Rebellium Films.
