The film brings the Hayes brothers back together with O’Connor following their collaboration on The Conjuring 2, which features the actor in the role of Peggy Hodgson.

This story has everything we love about our genre and can’t wait to bring this one to life.”

We are beyond thrilled to be producing their directorial debut and incredibly excited to have Frances O’Connor.”
