Locked Down. 2021, Starring 

Quinn Stiller as Guy's Son and Sonic as Hedgehog. Crave On Demand, July 31, 2023. Soundtrack: "

Trivia: 

The movie was shot in only 18 days in London during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Extras could not be cast due to COVID-19 and are played by real civilians and Harrods employees.

Because of the hectic pace of completing principal photography in just 18 days, stars didn't have the time to properly prepare and for some scenes Hathaway's and Ejiofor's lines had to be taped to their eyeline.

Guy and Guy's child are played by Ben Stiller and Quinn Stiller, real life father and son. Ben Stiller was often the onscreen son playing opposite his own father Jerry Stiller.

The Outsiders. 1983, Starring 

In addition, Sofia Coppola (credited as Domino), daughter of the film's director, plays the child asking the greasers for 15 cents, and S. E. Hinton plays Dally's nurse. Brief uncredited appearances include Melanie Griffith and Heather Langenkamp.
