‘Please Don’t Feed The Children’: First Look at Michelle Dockery as the Villain in Destry Allyn Spielberg’s Directorial Debut

The upcoming post-apocalyptic horror film ‘Please Don’t Feed the Children‘ marks Destry Allyn Spielberg’s feature directorial debut, the daughter of legendary filmmaker Steven Spielberg. Ahead of its world premiere at Sitges this week, first-look images have been released, showcasing Michelle Dockery’s unsettling character.

In ‘Please Don’t Feed the Children’, a group of orphans travels south in search of a new life after a viral outbreak decimates the adult population, only to encounter a deranged woman with a dangerous secret.

The newly released images emphasize Dockery’s character, who appears both sinister and untrustworthy.

The film features an impressive cast, including Michelle Dockery (‘Boy Kills World’, The Gentlemen), Giancarlo Esposito (MaXXXine, Abigail), along with Zoe Colletti (Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark), Dean Scott Vazquez (Transformers: Rise of the Beasts), Vernon Davis (Chariot, A Day To Die), Emma Meisel (American Horror Story: 1984), Andrew Liner (Vampire Academy), Reagan Aliyah (Marvel’s Ironheart), and Joshuah Melnick (Saint X, Tesla).

Produced by Jason Dubin of Perry Street Films, along with Josh Kesselman, Michael Hagerty, Bill Kenwright, and Daniel Ryniker, the screenplay was written by Paul Bertino.

“I am beyond thrilled to premiere *Please Don’t Feed the Children* at the 57th annual Sitges International Film Festival. It’s an incredible honor to showcase our film alongside such visionary works,” Destry Allyn Spielberg stated. “This project provided everything I needed to officially step into feature directing. We shot it in just 18 days, and I am immensely proud of the cast and crew for demonstrating that anything is possible. I can’t wait to share this experience with the world.”
