Earlier this year, we reported that a live-action adaptation of the Until Dawn game is in the works, with David F Sandberg attached to direct. Sandberg took to Instagram the other day to announce that production on the film is underway with a film slate featuring an official Until Dawn game-like logo. The PlayStation game from 2015 is an interactive horror game where each user gets to choose their own adventure, with their every choice having an impact on the result.
The game revolves around some young adults who get back together at a mountain lodge following a tragedy among them. When a mystery killer begins to hunt them down, the nightmarish place becomes the last resort for them to keep themselves alive. The film is reportedly not looking to be a retelling of the same Until Dawn story, but it stars Peter Stormare in a role reprisal of therapist Dr Hill from the game. The new cast includes Ella Rubin, Michael Cimino, Ji-young Yoo, Odessa A’zion, Maia Mitchell, and Belmont Cameli.
Until Dawn reunites Sandberg with his Annabelle: Creation producer-writer Gary Dauberman.
