The Blur Door short revolved around a nurse assigned to an elderly woman living in a dilapidated home. The nurse unwittingly becomes the focus of the dark entity that is connected to a secret blue door, that once opened, has devastating consequences. Game of Thrones’ Gemma Whelan starred as the caring nurse in the short film.

The feature version of The Blue Door is described as having a strong dramatic core combined with a high concept horror mythology. Amblin’s Holly Barrio and Andrew Calof, who quickly secured the deal after several buyers expressed interest in the project, will oversee on behalf of Amblin.
