The “animals attack” genre is about to get a thrilling new addition with the upcoming film “Savage Hunt,” directed by Roel Reiné (“Halo”), as revealed by Deadline in an exclusive preview.

According to Deadline’s report, which includes a first-look image, the production has opted for authenticity by utilizing a real grizzly bear on location during filming.

Here’s what to expect from “Savage Hunt”: The story centers on a determined tracker tasked with hunting down a large grizzly bear that has begun targeting humans due to the disruption caused by the construction of a new local resort, which encroaches upon the wildlife’s natural habitat.

The producers emphasized their commitment to realism, aiming to portray the formidable power of nature and the consequences of human interference in the animal kingdom’s domain.

Producer Gabriel Georgiev highlighted the challenges of filming with a real bear in authentic locations alongside human actors, noting the complexity added by stunts. Georgiev expressed confidence in director Roel Reiné’s abilities, praising his talent, cinematic vision, and extensive experience, which are vital for bringing this ambitious project to life.

With “Savage Hunt” set to be introduced to potential buyers at the Cannes market by Film Bridge International, anticipation is high for this unique and immersive cinematic experience.
