Published

on

André Øvredal, who saw his Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark hit theaters last year, is already finished with his next genre offering, which releases overseas this February.

Bloody Disgusting has your first look at Mortal, which stars Death Note‘s Nat Wolff as a young man discovering he has God-like powers based on ancient Norwegian mythology.

Described as a fantasy-adventure origin story, the film’s first trailer is here and it looks like a genre mashup of Akira, Chronicle, and even X-Men.

The film also stars Priyanka Bose, Ravdeep Singh Bajw and Iben Akerlie.

Øvredal also directed Troll Hunter and The Autopsy of Jane Doe.

The upcoming science fiction film’s cast also includes Simu Liu, Sterling K. Brown, Gregory James Cohan, Abraham Popoola, Lana Parrilla and Mark Strong.

Peyton said in a recent statement, “Having the chance to direct Jennifer Lopez in the title role of this movie is a dream come true, as I know she’ll bring the incredible strength, depth and authenticity we’ve all come to admire from her work.”

Leo Sardarian wrote the original script, with the latest draft by Aron Eli Coleite.

Producers for the Netflix genre movie include Peyton, Lopez, Jeff Fierson, Joby Harold, Tory Tunnell, Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas, Benny Medina, Greg Berlanti and Sarah Schechter.
