Flatliners Nina Dobrev Ellen Page Diego Luna

Remember when a horror movie would come out once every three months or so? Aren't you glad that's over? Yeah, the FLATLINERS remake is still a thing. There's nothing I can do about that.

However pointless it may seem, the cast is actually really intriguing. Diego Luna and Ellen Page are currently set to star, and Nina Dobrev is currently in talks to join them. Dobrev is best known for her six season role on the hit teen soap The Vampire Diaries, but 'round these here parts, we know her from the sentimental slasher parody THE FINAL GIRLS.

She was also in THE ROOMMATE, if you're into that. At any rate, she's on her way to becoming a bona fide scream queen if she keeps up this volume of horror work. So, right now it's Page, Luna, and Dobrev. This cast just gets weirder and weirder. Who's next? Ron Perlman? Please tell me it's Ron Perlman.

The story of the original FLATLINERS is:

University Hospital School of Medicine, a group of ambitious medical students are about to die… and live to describe the experience.

Embarking on a daring and arrogant experiment, the five aim to push through the confines of life and touch the face of death. In their search for knowledge, however, the five discover the chilling consequences of daring to tamper with immortality.

The FLATLINERS remake is being directed by GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO director Niels Arden Oplev from a script by Ben Ripley.
