Britta DeVore is a Senior Author for Collider who has been known to dabble with Reality News as well.

Have you seen stories about 'Chucky,' 'Scream,' 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer,' 'The Boys,' 'Vanderpump Rules,' or any of 'The Real Housewives' franchises? That's probably a Britta DeVore-curated piece of art, and it sounds like you have great taste.

When she isn't sitting behind her laptop bringing readers her hot takes on upcoming projects or keeping the dream alive in the Senior News team, Britta can usually be found outside hiking or inside behind her drum set. She currently plays in two bands, Kid Midnight and Watergate, both based in Brooklyn. An obsessive traveler, Britta loves long road trips to the South West and has a soft spot in her heart for canyons, rivers, and forests.

She also has a tiny cat named Athena that she loves more than anything else in the world and is always happy for new brewery recs.

Relationships are filled with plenty of ups and downs. After all, like Joy Division said, “love will tear us apart.” Despite having the potential to completely devastate and demolish us, humans can’t seem to break away from the desire to love and be loved. But when love takes a wrong turn, things can go off the rails quickly. This spring, Jorma Taccone (MacGruber) will return to filmmaking after a decade away with his ode to a messy breakup through Over Your Dead Body. Starring Jason Segel (Shrinking) and Samara Weaving (Ready or Not 2: Here I Come), the comedy thriller serves as an English-language remake of Tommy Wirkola’s 2021 title, The Trip, and pits a couple at one another’s throats — literally. Today, as part of Collider’s Exclusive Preview event, we’ve got a brand-new look at the movie, which is slated for a theatrical debut on April 24.

Over Your Dead Body follows a couple (Segel, Weaving), who take what should be a romantic getaway to a forested cabin. While there, their animosity towards one another grows to a fever pitch, and it’s revealed that both parties were hoping to use this time away as an opportunity to murder the other. When their plans come to light, all hell breaks loose, and it’s anyone’s guess which member of the unhappy couple will be the last person standing. In addition to Segel and Weaving, the movie also features a supporting lineup that includes Juliette Lewis (Natural Born Killers), Timothy Olyphant (Alien: Earth), Keith Jardine (She Rides Shotgun), and Paul Guilfoyle (The Good Fight).

The struggle for survival is already in full swing in our exclusive image from Over Your Dead Body. Bruised and bloodied, Weaving’s character wears all black and sits in the basement of (presumably) the couple’s rental cabin, where she’s flanked by Lewis and Olyphant’s weapon-wielding characters on either side. From what we’ve previously seen in the film’s trailer, we know that a handful of other characters get mixed up in the madness, but this shot doesn’t make it entirely clear whose side they’re on.

They were both released on March 4th, but five years apart. Can you spot the differences between these animated animal adventures?

The 87North Productions Team Is Behind ‘Over Your Dead Body’

Overflowing with action, heavy stuntwork, and incredible fight sequences, it will come as a surprise to very few that one of the production teams behind Over Your Dead Body is none other than the good folks over at 87North Productions. Founded by David Leitch and Kelly McCormick, who are both producing Over Your Dead Body, the high-octane-centered studio has previously brought audiences other pulse-pounding flicks, including The Fall Guy, Bullet Train, and Nobody.
