Release Date

Written and directed by Kristoffer Borgli, Dream Scenario world premiered at the 2023 Toronto International Film Festival and opens in theaters on November 10, 2023.

Synopsis

Hapless family man Paul Matthews (Nicolas Cage) finds his life turned upside down when millions of strangers suddenly start seeing him in their dreams. But when his nighttime appearances take a nightmarish turn, Paul is forced to navigate his newfound stardom, in this wickedly entertaining comedy from writer-director Kristoffer Borgli (Sick of Myself) and producer Ari Aster.

Reviews

In their review, RollingStone wrote, “Part horror movie and part sideways swipe at cancel culture and social pariahdom, Dream Scenario is the sort of high-concept, surreal comedy that Michel Gondry, Spike Jonze, and Charlie Kaufman used to do on the regular — think Eternal Nicshine of the Spotless Cage. If it lacks the emotional undertow that characterized those movies from the late Nineties and early aughts, Norwegian director Kristoffer Borgli’s off-kilter satire makes up for it by marinating everything in a slightly noxious blend of silly and unsettling.”
