‘Killing Faith’ – DeWanda Wise and Guy Pearce Starring in Demonic Possession Horror Movie
Film Bridge International is launching sales at the American Film Market on Killing Faith, a supernatural horror movie that has put together a pretty impressive cast.
Deadline reports that Guy Pearce (Prometheus) and DeWanda Wise (Jurassic World Dominion) are attached, with Tim Roth (Reservoir Dogs) also in final negotiations.
Ned Crowley (Middle Man) wrote and will be directing Killing Faith.
Deadline previews, “Guy Pearce will play Dr. Bender, a faithless physician who agrees to escort an anguished mother (DeWanda Wise) on a journey across a treacherous desert.
“The mother is hopeful of finding a cure for her daughter’s mysterious illness: she is possessed by the devil. Tim Roth will play the role of Preacher Ross.”
Killing Faith has been able to secure a SAG-AFTRA interim agreement, and Deadline additionally notes that “filming is due to begin in New Mexico in January, 2024.”
The new horror movie from New Line Cinema and director Zach Cregger (Barbarian), the upcoming Weapons is assembling an impressive cast, with Josh Brolin (Dune 2) and Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel) recently signing on. Deadline reports today that Alden Ehrenreich (Cocaine Bear) is the latest actor to join the cast of Cregger’s new movie.
The upcoming Weapons is from writer/director Zach Cregger, who will also produce alongside his Barbarian producing team: Roy Lee of Vertigo and J.D. Lifshitz and Raphael Margules of BoulderLight Pictures. Vertigo’s Miri Yoon also produces.
The Hollywood Reporter teases, “Plot details for Weapons are being kept holstered but it is described as a multi and inter-related story horror epic that tonally is in the vein of Magnolia, the 1999 actor-crammed showcase from filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson.”
Cregger was a founding member and writer for the New York comedy troupe “The Whitest Kids U’Know,” which he started while attending The School of Visual Arts. The award-winning group’s self-titled sketch comedy show ran for five seasons on IFC-TV and Fuse. He was also a series regular on Jimmy Fallon’s NBC series “Guys with Kids” and the TBS hit series “Wrecked,” and was featured in a recurring role on the NBC series “About a Boy.”
Weapons will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures.
