“Walking Dead” star Chandler Riggs, pictured above, and Fantastic Four‘s Ioan Gruffudd, below, will star opposite Bella Thorne and Natalie Martinez in Home Invasion, a thriller being made by Voltage Pictures and Zinc Entertainment, a division of Silver Pictures, reports Heat Vision.
Commercials director Sean Carter is directing the thriller, which has a script by Joseph Dembner.
“The story focuses on a family imprisoned in their own home by intruders who play a life-and-death game in which the mysterious rules become clear as the night unfolds.“
With Riggs and Gruffudd on board, the family unit is now complete. Riggs joins Thorne in playing the siblings while Gruffudd will play the father to Martinez’s stepmother.
Invasion is being produced by Silver Pictures’ Andrew Rona and Alex Heineman, who developed the script, along with Voltage’s Nicolas Chartier and Craig Flores.
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.”
