June 27 (UPI) -- Streaming service Peacock announced it will exclusively stream Christopher Landon's thriller Drop starting July 11.
The film stars Meghann Fahy (The White Lotus Season 2) as Violet, a widowed mother whose first date in years takes a terrifying turn when an unseen antagonist somewhere in the restaurant starts dropping her increasingly threatening memes on her phone.
"This is my first time doing a film in this genre. So, I was very excited beforehand and also very scared. I think [director Chris Landon], obviously, was just like an incredible leader," Fahy told a crowd at New York Comic Con in April.
Drop, from Blumhouse, Platinum Dunes and Universal Pictures, streams exclusively on Peacock starting July 11.

How Love Island USA Host Ariana Madix Was ‘Inspired By' UK Host Maya Jama
When Vanderpump Rules alum Ariana Madix announced on the show how much she loved Love Island USA, the stars aligned. Later, Ariana signed on to host Season 6 of the series about sexy singles looking for a connection. Of course, Ariana brought new eyeballs to the Peacock series, and the ratings soared. And it seems like Season 7 of Love Island USA has even more heat and more controversy. Now, Ariana is opening up about why Maya Jama, the host of Love Island UK, caused her to up her game. As a host, Ariana brings some humor and playfulness to her role. So, who did she model her Love Island persona after? 'I'm a big fan of so many of the women who have hosted the show in the different countries, and in the U.S.,' Ariana told Variety. 'I think that no matter what, if you try to do what someone else is doing or has done, it won't work. I wanted to really bring myself to it.' She added, 'So whatever that is – being a little bit more on the sexy side, and trying to bring a level of confidence … if I'm not feeling it in the moment, you fake it until you make it. And of course, humor.' Plus, Ariana wanted to showcase some amazing fashion, and she slays. 'And I knew I really wanted to bring some amazing looks, and that was something that was also inspired by other hosts around the world,' the Pump Rules alum explained. 'Because when Maya Jama is walking into that U.K. villa, she is sex on a stick.' I think that Ariana also deserves a shout-out for reacting to the backlash against some of the Love Island cast members. 'Don't be contacting people's families, don't be doxxing people,' Ariana stated on Aftersun, 'don't be going on islander's pages and saying rude things.' She added, 'This is an amazing, fun, and beautiful show, and we should be thanking each of these islanders every day for giving us themselves, so be nice.' Love Island USA is available to stream on Peacock. New episodes drop every day except Wednesdays. TELL US – WHAT DO YOU THINK OF ARIANA AS A HOST ON LOVE ISLAND USA?
