‘Stitches’ Director Bites Into Vampire Comedy ‘Let the Wrong One In’; Anthony Head Stars as a Vampire Hunter!
Screendaily shares details about brand new vampire comedy Let the Wrong One In, which just wrapped production in Dublin under the direction of Stitches filmmaker Conor McMahon!
“Let the Wrong One In follows a young supermarket worker who discovers his older brother has turned into a vampire and must decide whether to help or slay his sibling.”
The cast includes emerging Irish talent Karl Rice and Eoin Duffy, and also stars Anthony Head from Repo! and “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” as a taxi driver with a sideline in vampire hunting.
Filming took place in key locations in Ringsend, as well as the Bram Stoker Museum / Castle Dracula in Clontarf. The film was originally scheduled to commence production in mid-March before it was put on hold due to the pandemic.
Production resumed in late September under Covid protocols and principal photography concluded without any further setbacks.
MPI Media Group is bringing the film to the American Film Market.
The film is scheduled for delivery in 2021.
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.”
