The SXSW Film Festival begins this coming March, and they’re already teasing out some HUGE premieres.
Not only will they World Premiere Pee-wee’s Big Holiday, directed by John Lee and produced by Judd Apatow and Paul Reubens featuring Pee-wee Herman on a new adventure, but they announced two genre titles that are going to get me on a plane out to Austin, Texas from March 11-20.
First, pictured above is Irene Taylor Brodsky’s Beware the Slenderman, based on the iconic character that started on Creepy Pasta years ago.
In the film, “In this horrifyingly modern fairytale lurks an online Boogeyman and two 12-year-old girls who would kill for him. The entrance to the internet quickly leads to its darkest basement. How responsible are our children for what they find there?”
AMC has also decided to premiere the pilot of Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg’s “Preacher” series, which hits the cabler later this year.
“‘Preacher’ is a supernatural, twisted and darkly comedic drama that follows a West Texas preacher named Jesse Custer, who – along with his ex-girlfriend Tulip and an Irish vagabond named Cassidy – is thrust into a crazy world, much bigger than he is.”
Dominic Cooper, Ruth Negga, Joseph Gilgun, Ian Colletti, W. Earl Brown, and Lucy Griffiths all star.
