‘The Dire Wolf’ – Andrzej Bartkowiak Directing Supernatural Horror Movie
The director of films including Doom and Romeo Must Die, Andrzej Bartkowiak will next be directing a supernatural horror movie titled The Dire Wolf, Deadline reports today.
Steelyard Pictures is the company behind The Dire Wolf, releasing sometime next year.
Deadline details, “The film tells the story of Hank Whitmore, a sharp and stubborn New Mexican sheriff who aligns with the Navajo Nation when a series of supernatural events threatens his family, his town, and his way of life.”
Ry Cook wrote the screenplay for The Dire Wolf.
Leone Marucci (The Inhabitant, The Power of Few) will produce. Marucci tells Deadline, “American cinema has long wrestled with our native culture’s spiritual connection to the natural world. The extinct Dire Wolf was [once] indigenous to North America. Today the wolf spirit symbolizes trust of intuition, guardianship, and the courage to walk one’s own path.
“We’re thrilled to enlist such a renowned filmmaker to bring The Dire Wolf to the screen.”
Umbrelic Entertainment has announced the upcoming horror movie The Possession at Gladstone Manor, which will be wrapping up production later this week.
The film’s cast includes Caylee Cowan (Hypnotic), Jesse Metcalf (John Tucker Must Die), Charlotte Kirk (The Reckoning), Darren Weiss (Inside Man), Barbara Crampton (You’re Next), William Mapother (Blackhat), and Lin Shaye (Insidious franchise).
In The Possession at Gladstone Manor, “When Jamie Black discovers her mother has gone missing, she resolves to investigate by applying for the same job her mother held at Gladstone Manor. Jamie soon finds evidence that her mother isn’t the only missing person, and that she may be dealing with sinister forces beyond this world.
“Desperate, she enlists the help of her brothers – Rupert and Chris – and Sam (Chris’ fiancée): all of whom are professional criminals and former marines. Once Jamie arrives at the house, she is immediately greeted by a mysterious and evil Nurse, and soon realizes the residents of Gladstone Manor are an enemy like no other, with a dark power she’s never faced. Trapped in the house, she must rely on her brothers and future sister-in-law to save her.”
Director K. Asher Levin (Dig) co-wrote the script with Danny Matier (The Unborn), from a story by Addam Bramich. Theresa Wayman from Warpaint is composing the score.
