Over Your Dead Body is a 2026 American action-comedy thriller directed by Jorma Taccone, starring Jason Segel and Samara Weaving as a married couple whose getaway to a remote cabin turns into a darkly comedic battle of wills — and wits — as each secretly plots the other's demise.

What is Over Your Dead Body about?

When a long-strained marriage reaches its breaking point, the couple at the center of this film decide that a quiet retreat to an isolated cabin might be exactly what they need to sort things out. Away from the noise of everyday life, old grievances bubble to the surface. What begins as an awkward attempt at reconciliation quickly reveals a more sinister undercurrent: both spouses have arrived with private plans that go far beyond couples therapy. As trust erodes and domestic tension escalates into something far more dangerous, the film mines its premise for sharp comedic beats while keeping the thriller mechanics tightly wound. Neither partner is quite what the other expects, and every seemingly innocent moment carries the weight of concealed intent.

Cast & crew

Jorma Taccone, best known for his work with the Lonely Island comedy collective, steps behind the camera for this genre-blending project. Jason Segel brings his trademark everyman warmth to a role that turns it against the audience's expectations, while Samara Weaving — known for sharp work across horror and comedy — matches him beat for beat. The supporting cast includes Timothy Olyphant and Juliette Lewis, both veterans of crime-tinged genre fare.

Context & significance

For Persian-speaking viewers in the diaspora, Over Your Dead Body arrives with Persian dubbing and Persian subtitles, making it fully accessible regardless of English fluency. The film's dark-comedy premise — a marriage collapsing under the weight of mutual suspicion and hidden agendas — lands with particular resonance for audiences who appreciate sharp genre hybrids: equal parts relationship satire and thriller. The film blends American indie sensibility with a propulsive plot, and its cabin-isolation setting creates the claustrophobic atmosphere that genre fans from Tehran to Toronto tend to respond to strongly. This is a foreign production, co-produced with Norwegian and Finnish involvement, and represents the kind of internationally flavored Hollywood output that travels well.
