Here’s Nicolas Cage in Richard Stanley’s ‘Color Out of Space’
After having its World Premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, Richard Stanley‘s adaptation of Color Out of Space will also screen at the Fantastic Fest in Austin, Texas.
With this morning’s announcement came a brand new still of stars Nicolas Cage and Joely Richardson in the film in which they play a “family whose recent retreat to rural life is quickly disrupted by a meteorite that crashes in their front yard.
“The Gardners’ peaceful escape quickly becomes a hallucinatory prison, as an extraterrestrial organism contaminates the farmstead, infecting everything and everyone it can.”
From the mind of H.P. Lovecraft, TIFF describes the film as a cosmic nightmare. You can see shades of this 1927 story in Stephen King’s short story “Weeds”, which would be adapted into Creepshow.
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.”
