“He’ll kill me if he finds me!” Run, Phoebe, run! IFC Films has unveiled an official trailer for an indie thriller film titled Inheritance, now set for release in theaters starting slow January 2025. Strangely haven’t heard much about this film before and it hasn’t shown up at any film festivals either. From director Neil Burger (Divergent, The Illusionist), Inheritance follows Maya, who learns her father Sam was once a spy. Suddenly, she finds herself at the center of an international conspiracy and must go on the run, too. Starring Phoebe Dynevor, Rhys Ifans, Ciara Baxendale, and Majd Eid. This looks like an intricate & intimate thriller, with tons of intense GoPro-esque close-up shots of Dynevor as she goes on the round. Also looks like they shot this with a petite crew using budget-friendly digital cameras all around the world and filming on the fly (without permits or approvals in some of these countries). It might be entertaining? It might not? Take a look below.

Here’s the first official trailer (+ poster) for Neil Burger’s film Inheritance, direct from IFC’s YouTube:

When Maya (Dynevor) learns that her father was once a spy, she suddenly finds herself at the center of an international conspiracy. In her quest for answers, Maya becomes a target and must travel the globe, mastering her father’s skills and unraveling the mysteries of his past in this gripping espionage thriller. Inheritance is directed by American filmmaker Neil Burger, director of Interview with the Assassin, The Illusionist, The Lucky Ones, Limitless, Divergent, The Upside, Voyagers, and The Marsh King’s Daughter previously. The screenplay is written by Neil Burger and Olen Steinhauer. It’s produced by Neil Burger, Bill Block, Charles Miller. This hasn’t premiered at any festivals or elsewhere, as far as we know. IFC Films will debut Inheritance in select US theaters starting January 24th, 2025 early next year. How does that look?
