Exclusive: Russell Crowe Talks New Thriller ‘Unhinged’
Finally hitting US theaters this week after a few delays due to the pandemic crisis from Solstice Studios is the Russell Crowe-led psychological thriller “Unhinged,” which has already opened overseas.
Unhinged is a timely psychological thriller that explores the fragile balance of a society pushed to the edge, taking something we’ve all experienced- road rage – to an unpredictable and terrifying conclusion. Rachel (Caren Pistorius) is running late to work when she has an altercation at a traffic light with a stranger (Crowe) whose life has left him feeling powerless and invisible.

The film is directed by Derrick Borte (American Dreamer) and also stars Caren Pistorius (Mortal Engines), Gabriel Bateman (Lights Out, Child’s Play), Jimmi Simpson (It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Westworld) and Austin P. McKenzie (When We Rise).
