The locusts are coming for blood in The Swarm, which Bloody Disgusting first told you about a few months ago.

Now, Netflix has acquired worldwide rights on The Swarm (La Nuée), the new dramatic thriller from Just Philippot, out of the virtual Cannes market. (The deal excludes France, Spain and China.)

In the film, life is hard for Virginie, who lives on a farm with her children, and raises grasshoppers to be made into flour.

But everything changes when she discovers the locusts have a taste for blood…

Things get Biblical in The Swarm, which stars Marie Narbonne, Suliane Brahim, Sofian Khammes, and Raphaël Romand.

Here are some additional shots and the French trailer, sent over by Fabien M.

Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.

Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things),  Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.

The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).

Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.

Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.

Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.

In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
