Rachel McAdams Survival Comedy SEND HELP Sets Digital Release

Send Help, the dark comedy from filmmaker Sam Raimi starring Rachel McAdams, will arrive on digital platforms on March 24, including Prime Video, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home. The 4K Ultra HD and DVD release is set for April 21, featuring over two hours of bonus content.

Raimi describes Send Help as a darkly comedic reversal of power: “What if a woman was cheated by the boys’ club at work, held down by corporate management and a terrible, mean boss who treats her unfairly? And what if they crash-landed on an island and the roles were reversed?”

That premise comes to life onscreen through the performances of Rachel McAdams and Dylan O'Brien, as two business colleagues who become stranded on a deserted island as the only survivors of a plane crash. Consequently, the duo is forced to overcome past grievances and work together to stay alive through an unsettling, wryly humorous battle of wills and wits. Since hitting theaters this January, the movie has earned a 93% Certified Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
