Bella Thorne – who has yet to star in a good horror movie (Keep Watching, Amityville: The Awakening, The Babysitter, I Still See You, Ride) – will topline in sci-fi horror The Friendship Game, directed by Scooter Corkle, reports Variety.
The Friendship Game follows a group of teens in a small town as they come across a strange object that tests their loyalties to each other with increasingly destructive consequences the deeper into the game they go.
Corkle is direction from a script by Damien Ober, whose credits include writing segments for Netflix’s sci-fi series “The OA.”
Daniel Bekerman of Scythia Films is the producer. CAA and Tannaz Anisi’s 13 Films are launching sales at the Cannes Film Festival, which opens May 14. Production will start in August in Vancouver.
