This is definitely NOT the escapist movie we need right now.

Check out the trailer for a new movie coming out called “Songbird”, which takes place during year four of pandemic lockdown where we’re dealing with COVID-23. It’s a thriller from producer Michael Bay that follows what happens when the virus mutates and starts attacking the human brain. It stars KJ Apa from “Riverdale” as a delivery guy with a rare immunity that allows him to continue to work, and Sofia Carson from Disney’s “Descendants” as his girlfriend.

It was the first movie to start filming in L.A. since the pandemic shut everything down. There’s no word yet on a release date.
