Samara Weaving (Ready or Not, Scream VI) leads the cast of the upcoming Azrael from writer Simon Barrett (The Guest, You’re Next), and Deadline shares a first-look image today.

Deadline also notes, “Ahead of the EFM, Michael Rothstein and Sam Hall’s Mossbank is launching international sales on action-horror film Azrael.”

Here’s the brand new plot synopsis for the film, shared by Deadline…

“The film is set in a world in which no one speaks and follows a devout female-led community which hunts down a young woman who has escaped her imprisonment. Recaptured by its ruthless leaders, Azrael (Samara Weaving) is due to be sacrificed to pacify an ancient evil deep within the surrounding wilderness – but she has other ideas.”

Evan Katz (Haunting Of Bly Manor) directed Azrael, now in post-production.

Dan Kagan (Significant Other) and Simon Barrett are producing.

Mossbank’s Michael Rothstein said in a statement, “From the first minute we read it, we were captivated by the world of Azrael and the potential of a film so relentless and action-packed for its genre – distinguished by its own unique “voice,” which has so much to say. E.L. Katz and Simon Barrett have delivered something truly visionary, which will undoubtedly connect with a global legion of fans. And we couldn’t think of a more perfect heroine in Samara Weaving, who’s at the peak of her powers right now.”
