New Writer Takes Stab at ‘Dibbuk Box’
Writer-actor-producer E.L. Katz is currently writing a draft of Dibbuk Box for Ghost House Pictures, according to the IMDB. The film was inspired by a real life haunted box purchased on Ebay that brings bad fortune to its possessors. Eventually being passed from one person to the next and causing all sorts of torment. I personally followed this event as it happened over the course of a few years, which was a very odd and interesting experience. This could be a really cool project! Katz wrote HOME SICK, POP SKULL and the upcoming AUTOPSY, which was directed by Adam Gierasch.
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.”
