We learned back in January that Chloë Grace Moretz will be battling an evil presence in the WWII-set Shadow in the Cloud, a film originally written by Max Landis and being directed by Roseanne Liang. But in the wake of sexual assault allegations against Landis, Moretz now assures that he’s been completely scrubbed from the project.
Moretz told The Guardian this week, “We’ve completely distanced ourselves from him. We’ve rewritten it several times now. His name is kind of far away from the project.“
“Communication is key and being held accountable is key,” the actress added. “It’s a really horrific thing to hear those stories.”
“Moretz will play a captain carrying top secret documents aboard a B-17 Flying Fortress who must contend with an evil presence, an oncoming Japanese ambush and a leery, all-male crew.”
Brian Kavanaugh-Jones (Sinister) and Fred Berger (La La Land) from Automatik, Kelly McCormick (Atomic Blonde) and Tom Hern (The Dark Horse) of Four Knights Film are producing. Sandra Yee Ling is executive producing.
