About Unwelcome Movie:

  • Jon Wright was inspired by the Grimm Fairytales and stories from his own Irish grandfather. Wright described it as a “home invasion movie” and pitched it as “Gremlins meets Straw Dogs”.
  • Hannah John-Kamen and Douglas Booth were announced on the production in October 2020 when it was originally called “Little People”.
  • The superbly crafted redcap goblins were not puppets. They are played by actors Paul Warren, Rick Warden, and stunt performers, all wearing costumes and practical goblin heads. According to director Jon Wright, they were shot on double-sized sets, which give the illusion of people who are half-size. Rather than use animatronics to animate the heads, they added CGI motion capture faces.
  • Unwelcome was released in Ireland and the United Kingdom on 27 January 2023, in the United States on 10 March 2023, and on digital on 14 March 2023 by Warner Bros. Pictures. It was previously scheduled for 4 February 2022, before being moved up to 28 October 2022, then to its current release date.
