Apple and Sam Hargrave Team Up for a New Adventure

Sam Hargrave, known for his work on action-packed films like "Extraction, " is in discussions to direct "Last Flight Out" for Apple. This project is an adaptation of Marc Guggenheim's graphic novel, which is published by Dark Horse and illustrated by Eduardo Ferigato. The story revolves around a father and daughter trying to reconcile as the world comes to an end. Apple and Chernin Entertainment see this as a major film event, and Hargrave's experience with action films makes him a great fit for this project. This collaboration brings Hargrave back to work with Apple after their successful partnership on "Matchbox, " starring John Cena. The production team includes Peter Chernin and David Ready from Chernin Entertainment, Mike Richardson and Keith Goldberg Hargrave from Dark Horse Entertainment, and Marc Guggenheim, who will adapt the script. Guggenheim is known for his work on the Arrow-verse and has been quite productive recently, selling three pilots in the past six months. He is also working on a Netflix movie called "An Innocent Girl, " directed by Jaime Collett-Serra. Chernin Entertainment has been quite busy lately, especially after signing a first-look feature deal with Apple TV. "Last Flight Out" joins other projects like "Five Secrets, " which Apple preemptively purchased. Chernin Entertainment has produced several notable projects for Apple TV, including "Chief of War" starring Jason Momoa, the Emmy-nominated "See" also starring Momoa, the NAACP Award-winning "Truth Be Told" starring Octavia Spencer and Gabrielle Union, and the Emmy-winning documentary series "The War for Football. " Hargrave's reputation for action films and his recent work on "The Last Frontier" series make him a strong choice for this project. The collaboration between Apple and Chernin Entertainment continues to yield impressive results, and "Last Flight Out" is poised to be another exciting addition to their lineup. The combination of Hargrave's direction, Guggenheim's script, and the production team's expertise promises a compelling and action-packed film.
