Maddie Hasson (“Mr. Mercedes”, I Saw the Light, God Bless America) has joined the cast of James Wan’s untitled Atomic Monster Film (AKA Silvercup) in a key role, Deadline is reporting.
Plot details are currently being kept under wraps, although rumors claim it will “follow two women on the run from a monster.”
She joins the current cast which includes Annabelle Wallis, Jake Abel and George Young.
The pic reps a return for Wan to his indie horror/thriller roots after directing Saw, Dead Silence, Insidious and The Conjuring 1 and 2.
It will shoot in Los Angeles at the end of September.
The project is being independently financed by Starlight Media and Midas Innovation, which is distributing in China. New Line, which has a long history with Wan on his Conjuring franchise and upcoming Mortal Kombat (which Wan is producing), will release the pic in the rest of the world. Wan is producing with Michael Clear with a story by Wan and Ingrid Bisu.
