Writer/Director Drew Goddard shares his perspective and delight in filmmaking, particularly his collaboration once again with Production Designer Martin Whist & Set Decorator Hamish Purdy SDSA International. Over the course of one fateful night, everyone will have a last shot at redemption…before everything goes to hell. In the lobby, where the shine has faded and the laughter fallen silent, gather Father Daniel Flynn, soul singer Darlene Sweet, traveling salesman Laramie Seymour Sullivan, hippie Emily Summerspring, her sister Rose, manager Miles Miller and the enigmatic Billy Lee. Once a hotspot where the country’s most famous celebrities and politicians comingled in and around the resort’s casino, bar, bungalows and pool, the good times have come to a close.

It also straddles the colliding worlds of past and present. Situated on the border between California and Nevada, the El Royale offers warmth and sunshine to the west, hope and opportunity to the east. Seven very different but equally lost souls converge on the El Royale, a once-glorious resort that has since fallen-like its visitors-into disrepute.
