Intrepid Pictures’ horror-thriller The Bye Bye Man has started shooting in Cleveland.
Michael Trucco (pictured; “Battlestar Galactica: The Plan,” “Killer Women” and “Revenge”) joins Doug Jones, Douglas Smith, Cressida Bonas and Lucien Laviscount, reports Variety.
The film recounts a series of terrifying events experienced by three Wisconsin college students, played by Smith, Bonas and Laviscount. Trucco plays the brother of one the students, whose mind has been invaded by the unstoppable Bye Bye Man (Jones).
Stacy Title is directing from Jonathan Penner’s script, based on Robert Damon Schneck’s short story “The Bridge to Body Island.” Trevor Macy is producing for Intrepid, and Jeffrey Soros and Simon Horsman are producing for Los Angeles Media Fund.
