New Year’s Eve Turns Into a Hell of a Night

Published

on

I love a good thriller, especially one where a good time ends so very, very badly (and appears to give homage to the great Alfred Hitchcock).

Matt Lanter (The Roommate, Vampires Suck, Sorority Row) , Gillian Zinser (Manson Girls), Torrance Coombs and Sara Paxton (The Innkeepers, Last House on the Left, Shark Night 3D) will star in the psychological thriller Liars All, written and directed by Brian Brightly, writes THR.

Alice Evans, Tiffany Mulheron and Randy Wayne also appear in “the story of a group of friends celebrating New Year’s Eve in London by playing a provocative game that ultimately gets terribly out of control.

The indie production is scheduled to begin filming Monday in L.A.

Chris Columbus (Gremlins – writer, Home Alone – director) is headed back into the director’s chair for Thursday Murder Club, Amblin’s upcoming feature film adaptation of the same-titled novel written by Richard Osman. Variety first reported the news this morning.

It’s not a horror movie, mind you, but rather a star-studded murder-mystery. Think Rian Johnson’s Knives Out… only this particular murder-mystery is set in a retirement community!

Variety details, “The book, released in 2020, tells the story of four septuagenarian friends who live in a retirement community and solve cold cases for fun. When a shady property developer is found dead, the four find themselves in the middle of their first live crime.”

Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan and Ben Kingsley are “being eyed” to lead the cast!

Richard Osman’s 2020 novel was such a hit that it launched a franchise. Follow-up The Man Who Died Twice followed in 2021, with The Bullet That Missed coming along in 2022. And then there was The Last Devil to Die in 2023, with a fifth book in the series expected in 2025.
