‘Black Cab’ – First Look at Nick Frost in Supernatural Horror Movie
From Shudder, Sony Pictures Television and Stolen Pictures comes Black Cab, a supernatural horror movie starring Nick Frost (Shaun of the Dead) that Screen Daily previews today.
Nick Frost will play “an erratic cab driver” in the upcoming horror movie from director Bruce Goodison (Murdered By My Father, Leave To Remain, Then Barbara Met Alan).
Screen Daily details, “Last Night In Soho’s Synnøve Karlsen and The Colour Room’s Luke Norris play a couple who find their jovial black cab driver is not taking them home.
“Trapped on a desolate, supposedly haunted road, they are faced with their captor’s true intentions.”
David Michael Emerson and Virginia Gilbert wrote the screenplay, with what Screen Daily describes in their report as “additional writing material from [Nick] Frost.”
You can expect Black Cab to open up its doors on Shudder later this year.
The filmmakers behind Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey are expanding their public domain horror universe with a handful of upcoming “Poohniverse” movies, including Bambi: The Reckoning, Pinocchio: Unstrung, and Peter Pan’s Neverland Nightmare.
Variety has scored the first image from Neverland Nightmare, seen above.
The website details, “Peter Pan’s Neverland Nightmare follows Wendy Darling as she strikes out in an attempt to rescue her brother Michael from ‘the clutches of the evil Peter Pan.’ Along the way she meets Tinkerbell, who in this twisted version of the story will be seen taking heroine, convinced that it’s pixie dust.”
Scott Jeffrey will direct Peter Pan’s Neverland Nightmare, expected Halloween 2024.
Jeffrey tells us, “I am taking inspiration from French cinema while in prep for this movie. The film will be incredibly tense. I would say it’s a mesh between Switchblade Romance and The Black Phone with our own spin on it. It is a nasty, violent and incredibly dark movie.”
Megan Placito has joined the cast as Wendy Darling, Kit Green is Tinkerbell, Peter DeSouza-Feighoney (The Pope’s Exorcist) is Michael Darling and Charity Kase (RuPaul Drag Race) is James. Martin Portlock will be playing the twisted version of Peter Pan.
Created by J.M. Barrie way back in 1902, the character of Peter Pan – like Winnie the Pooh – is in the public domain, even if the iconic Disney iteration of the character is very much not.
