Fantasy Island is directed by Jeff Wadlow from a screenplay he co-wrote along with Chris Roach and Jillian Jacobs. Jason Blum produces with Marc Toberoff.
Rooker and Pena’s co-stars include Lucy Hale, Austin Stowell, Portia Doubleday, Jimmy O. Yang, Ryan Hansen, Charlotte McKinney, Parisa Fitz-Henley, Robbie Jones, and Maggie Q. Sony releases Blumhouse’s Fantasy Island on Valentine’s Day aka February 14, 2020.
