We are thrilled to announce that the highly anticipated trailer for the short film “I Wish I Never Existed” has finally been released!
Brought to you by the creative minds at DIFYRENT, this 25-minute film is already making waves and is sure to leave a lasting impact on audiences worldwide.
A Stellar Cast and a Heartfelt Story
“I Wish I Never Existed” stars the incredibly talented Zoe Colletti, known for her roles in “Only Murders In The Building,” “Fear: The Walking Dead,” and “The Family Plan.” In this film, Zoe takes on the role of Sam, a young girl grappling with her place in the universe after making a life-changing wish on a shooting star.

"Sam is dead—to everyone else at least. After wishing on a shooting star, Sam struggles to find her place in the universe when everyone she knew forgets she existed—except her grandpa.”
An Award-Winning Production Team
DIFYRENT’s collaboration with 2x Emmy-winning Executive Producer Jon Cassar (24, Criminal Minds, The Orville) has elevated this project to new heights. This partnership, combined with an entirely local crew, has resulted in a visually stunning film that is sure to captivate audiences.
Following its triumph at last year, winning €100,000 through the Malta Create Prize, the team faced the daunting task of pooling talents from three continents, creating over 100 visual effects shots in-house, and dedicating a year to perfecting the film. The result is nothing short of magical.
A True Labor of Love
Loosely based on the true story of Maria Grech's (co-director) father passing, “I Wish I Never Existed” is a testament to the dedication and passion of its creators.
Co-director Dylan Odom shared his thoughts on the collaborative process: “Combining well-known heavy hitters like Jon and Zoe with some of the greatest talent on the island (Malta, where it was shot), both in front of and behind the camera, is what allowed us to create such a magical story.”
What’s Next for “I Wish I Never Existed”?
The film will premiere in Malta, kicking off a tour of major festivals around the world. The creators hope that this journey will ultimately lead to a spot on streaming platforms, bringing Sam’s story to an even wider audience.
As we eagerly await to show you the entire film, the newly released trailer offers a glimpse of what’s to come. Be sure to watch it and join us in celebrating this incredible achievement by the extremely talented cast and crew of “I Wish I Never Existed.”
