Jorma Taccone’s latest feature, Over Your Dead Body, is set to make its world premiere at the South by Southwest Film Festival (SXSW) on March 14, before opening in theaters nationwide on April 24, 2026.

Directed by the Saturday Night Live alumnus and member of The Lonely Island, Taccone brings his background in comedy to this dark action-driven story. The film stars Jason Segel and Samara Weaving as a dysfunctional couple who retreat to a remote cabin in an effort to reconnect. What neither admits is that each has privately planned to kill the other.

The ensemble cast also includes Timothy Olyphant, Juliette Lewis, Paul Guilfoyle, and Keith Jardine. Positioned as a twisted action comedy, the film blends relationship drama with escalating violence in an isolated setting.
