"Clock," a timely horror feature starring Dianna Agron and Melora Hardin from 20th Digital Studio and Hulu Originals will have its World Premiere at the Overlook Film Festival in New Orleans, La., March 30 through April 2. The film will debut exclusively on Hulu on April 28 and Disney+ internationally at a later date.

Directed and written by Alexis Jacknow ("Again," upcoming "The Villager"), "Clock" is the story of a woman who enrolls in a clinical trial to try and fix her seemingly broken biological clock after friends, family, and society pressures her to have children. Dianna Agron ("Shiva Baby", forthcoming "Acidman" and "El Elegido") leads as Ella, with Jay Ali ("Carnival Row," "Daredevil") as her husband. Melora Hardin ("The Office," "The Bold Type") features as the pioneering doctor managing Ella's treatment.

Jacknow was tapped to write and direct two short films ("Costume Change" and the short "Clock") under heavy COVID-19 restrictions in 2020 for the first season of 20th Digital Studio's "Bite Size Halloween." The feature version of "Clock" developed from there and is part of the studio's existing slate of horror features for Hulu, including "Grimcutty," "Matriarch," and the upcoming "Appendage" and "The Mill."

"Clock" was developed by 20th Digital Studio with David Worthen Brooks, Arbi Pedrossian, and Jenna Cavelle as executive producers. Leal Naim serves as producer with Alex Hansen co-producing.
