Nathalie Emmanuel (Game of Thrones, Furious 7) and Garrett Hedlund (Tron: Legacy, Death Sentence) have signed on to star in The Bride, a "contemporary horror thriller" inspired by Bram Stoker's Dracula.
Jessica M. Thompson, who made her feature directorial debut with the 2017 drama The Light of the Moon, will be directing the film, working from a screenplay by Blair Butler, who originally pitched the project. Butler's previous credits include Polaroid and Helstrom.
Thompson is handling script revisions herself. The Bride will tell the story of
a young woman who is courted and swept off her feet, only to realize a gothic conspiracy is afoot.
Emile Gladstone is producing the film for Screen Gems. The studio is said to be excited about this project, feeling that it has franchise potential. That's why they've put it on the fast track, with filming expected to begin by the end of summer.
I look forward to seeing if The Bride will turn out to be as cool and exciting as Screen Gems thinks it is.
