Out of the Blue is a 2022 American thriller film written and directed by Neil LaBute and starring Diane Kruger and Ray Nicholson. Plot

Connor is a young man living in a small coastal New England town trying to rebuild his life following a stint in prison when he meets Marilyn, an alluring older woman to whom he finds himself attracted. The two soon become involved in a romantic affair. Connor then learns that Marilyn is actually married to an older man she claims she is unhappy with. At one point, Marilyn suggests they/he murder her husband so they can be together. Connor wants no part in any murder-for-hire scheme until he is suspected in a number of break-in robberies in town which his parole officer, Jock, wrongfully suspects him of committing, but cannot prove it. Suspecting that Marilyn might be setting him up as a fall guy, but too blinded by his infatuation with her, he agrees to the murder plot. Cast
