Go Behind-the-Scenes of Barry Levinson’s Now Filming ‘The Bay’
Yesterday we broke the news that Will Rogers (Happy New Year), Steven Kunken (All Good Things, “Law & Order”), Kether Donohue, Frank Deal (“Fringe,” Antibody), Christopher Denham (Shutter Island), and Kristin Connelly (Bicentennial Man ) would all star in Barry Levinson’s The Bay (aka Isopod), which is now filming in Georgetown County, SC. Check out some behind-the-scenes videos below. From a screenplay by Michael Wallach, on the 4th of July in 2011, an unprecedented biological disaster is unleashed from the waters of the Chesapeake Bay. An isopod parasite, carrying untreatable, mutated diseases, jumps from fish to human host and replaces them with itself. Seven years later, the true horror and scope of the event, captured mainly on home videos by the town’s now long-dead victims, is revealed to the public for the first time. The pic is being produced by Paranormal Activity/Insidious/Area51 team of Jason Blum, Oren Peli and Steven Schneider, along with Brian Kavanagh Jones (Skyline, Insidious).

Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.
Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things), Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.
The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).
Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.
Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.
Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.
In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
