“Scream” Star Joins ‘Tales From the Hood’ Sequel [Exclusive]
We’re getting more Tales From the Hood from director Rusty Cundieff, which recently wrapped filming in New Orleans.
It was revealed late last week that Keith David, best known to horror fans from both John Carpenter’s The Thing and They Live, would be replacing Clarence Williams III as the film’s funeral director. Now, Bloody Disgusting can exclusively reveal the addition of Bryan Batt, who not only starred in MTV’s “Scream” series, but also “Mad Men” and 12 Years a Slave.
In the first film co-penned and produced by Darin Scott, a funeral director (Clarence Williams III) tells four strange tales of horror to three drug dealers he traps in his place of business.
It was as much of a socially relevant movie then as it is now. Things are so tense and so horrible in 2018 that the filmmakers should have a lot to say, making this potentially one of the most important films of the year.
Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”
Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach wrote the script.
Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
