Ella Rubin, Michael Cimino, Ji-young Yoo, and Odessa A’zion are all attached to the project, described “as an R-rated and terrifying love letter to the horror genre.”
Gary Dauberman wrote the latest version of Blair Butler’s previous script draft. It’s not yet confirmed if the movie will follow any of the video game’s key points.
