Production has concluded on the dark comedy feature film 'Stockholm Squad,' helmed by writer-director Alec Bewkes. The independent film stars Janel Parrish, Leslie David Baker, and Erinn Hayes, alongside Bewkes himself, Rizwan Manji, and Malia Pyles.
The narrative follows six strangers who are kidnapped and confined to a basement, where they must forge connections. The movie is creatively described as a blend of iconic films like 'The Breakfast Club' and '10 Cloverfield Lane.'
Filmed in Los Angeles, 'Stockholm Squad' is currently in its post-production phase. Bewkes, who makes his feature directorial debut, expressed a desire to create a story about finding hope and community even in the most unlikely circumstances, such as a dark basement.
Bewkes also recently directed the short film 'Shut Up, Jack,' which is slated for premiere at the 2026 Tribeca Festival next month. He appears in this short film with cast members Anand Mahalingam, Linnea Bullion, Ricky Wilson, and Rahne Avant.
