Sundance Pulls ‘Twinless’ From Digital Platform After Major Online Leaks, Including Dylan O’Brien Sex Scenes


Sundance has pulled 'Twinless' from its streaming service after sex scenes involving Dylan O'Brien leaked online.

One insider familiar with “Twinless” said the film was not pulled specifically over the steamy O’Brien scenes, but rather numerous plot reveals that spoil the movie — one still seeking a distributor out of the festival. O’Brien, of “Maze Runner” and “Teen Wolf” fame, was praised by critics for playing twin brothers, while Sweeney, who pulled off triple duty on “Twinless,” writing and directing the film in addition to starring, earned rave reviews for his twisty vision. Variety’s Peter Debruge called the film “disarmingly funny.” In his review, he wrote that “it’s a tonal tightwire act, to say the least, as Sweeney balances unconscionable behavior with an earnest look at bereavement, anxiety and anger management.”
