While we wait to hear more about the potential future of Tucker & Dale vs. Evil, Deadline announces that Eli Craig has signed on to direct a new horror-comedy, Bride and Doom!
Craig, who also wrote and directed Little Evil for Netflix, has been tapped to direct the wedding-themed horror-comedy by Argent Pictures and Mandalay Pictures.
Described as Cloverfield meets My Big Fat Greek Wedding, the pic follows a young couple struggling to hold onto their marriage during the worst possible wedding day imaginable.
“I’m an unabashed fan of wedding movies, but I think we’re past the point of seeing everything work out in the end. Everything doesn’t always work out, and weddings are sometimes the worst day of people’s lives. So let’s make an honest wedding movie for a change — let’s make it a horror movie!” Eli Craig said in a statement.
Josh Parkinson will be co-writing the script with Craig.
Argent’s Jill Ahrens, Ryan Ahrens, and Ben Renzo are producing with Mandalay’s Jason Michael Berman. Exec Producers are Drew Brees, Tony Parker, Michael Finley, and Derrick Brooks.
