Phoebe Dynevor

A healing retreat meant to deliver a fresh start instead leads to terror in Pendulum, which receives a very fitting New Year's release in theatres from Vertical on January 1st, 2027.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Phoebe Dynevor, Jackie Weaver, Jackie Weaver, is that not from Friday Night Dinner? Jenna Malone and Norman Reedus star in the upcoming horror film.

In Pendulum, married couple Patrick and Abigail journey to a New Age retreat in New Mexico, drawn by the possibility of healing after a traumatic event.

Patrick is willing to do anything to help his wife, but becomes distrustful of the retreat's enigmatic leader, even as Abigail falls under her spell.

They developed the story together.

And it stars Jake Gyllenhaal and Phoebe Dynevor.

It looks interesting.

I'm curious.

[gentle music] Ah, Finn.

Phoebe Dynevor, lest we forget, who's now-

Oh, yeah

... she's, well, look, she's, she's all wifed up and living her life.

Uh, but Phoebe Dynevor, they had a moment in the-

Mm

...

But the casting is what really elevates this whole thing for me.

You have Jake Gyllenhaal stepping into the role of Tate and Phoebe Dynevor as Ren

A powerhouse duo

And Sparks made a very specific comment about watching Gyllenhaal on set.

For Shyamalan to allow that spontaneity, to let Gyllenhaal surprise him, shows a real evolution in his directing.

He recognized that the raw, unpolished human element Gyllenhaal brought was more valuable than a perfectly executed storyboard

And then you pair Gyllenhaal's frantic energy with Phoebe Dynevor.

She obviously brings all that stylized high society romance conditioning from being a breakout star in Bridgerton

[laughs]

He's dated Emma Raducanu, Phoebe Dynevor, Margaret Qualley, and Kaia Gerber.

Mm.

He was also engaged to Ariana Grande.

Okay.

Still mourning his sister's death, he meets Ren, played by Phoebe Dynevor-

Mm-hmm

... a young woman who disrupts his carefully ordered world.

Um- Okay ... let me confirm before I say that.

Yeah, it's Patrick Schwarzenegger and Phoebe Dynevor are playing as the main characters.

Wow.

And I actually, like, I think that Phoebe Dynevor is, like, a worse casting than Patrick Schwarzenegger.

[laughs] Yeah.

Um, but people are really mad about Patrick Schwarzenegger being in that movie, and, like, there's, like, posts that indicate that maybe Emily Henry also doesn't love the casting, but I'm just like- Oh my God ... it'll be fine.

Busy boy.

LMFAO." And I guess Olivia O'Brien, the woman that he started dating that was more famous than her was Phoebe Dynevor, who was in Bridgerton.

Oh, Bridgerton.

Yeah.
