SpookyDan writes in with a brief skinny on Malone’s forthcoming projects.
This Friday at Screamfest catch Malone’s premiere of PARASOMNIA, a cautionary love story with a twisted killer, some amazing visuals – a modern day Grimm’s fairy tale. We got a chance to screen the film a few days early and while there we spoke Malone about his upcoming projects. “Well, I am working on prepping three different films right now,” he continues, “a wacked out horror tale, a big budget sci-fi epic, and another very dark horror project.” It’s all in the early stages now, so watch for updates as they come in.
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.”
