In the chilling sci-fi horror-thriller Companion (2025), directed by Drew Hancock, what begins as a dreamy weekend getaway spirals into a nightmarish battle for autonomy and survival. Sophie Thatcher delivers a breakout performance as Iris, a seemingly perfect girlfriend who joins her boyfriend Josh (Jack Quaid) at a luxurious remote lakeside estate owned by the enigmatic billionaire Sergey (Rupert Friend).

What starts as fun-filled nights of laughter, dancing, and bonding with Josh’s friends — the sharp-tongued Kat (Megan Suri), lively Eli (Harvey Guillén), and his charming boyfriend Patrick (Lukas Gage) — quickly unravels when hidden secrets surface and one guest is revealed to be far more than they appear. As tensions ignite and violence erupts, Iris must confront the terrifying truth of her own existence in a world where love, control, and technology collide.

Blending dark comedy, gripping suspense, and thought-provoking commentary on modern relationships and AI, Companion is a twisted take on companionship that will leave you questioning what it truly means to be human. From the studio behind The Notebook and the unhinged minds of Barbarian comes a fresh, bloody, and brilliantly clever thriller.
Starring: Sophie Thatcher (Iris), Jack Quaid (Josh), Lukas Gage (Patrick), Megan Suri (Kat), Harvey Guillén (Eli), Rupert Friend (Sergey).
