Jessica M Thompson to direct horror thriller The Bride

Jessica M Thompson is set to helm the horror-thriller titled The Bride.

According to sources, Thompson, who directed the critically acclaimed The Light of the Moon, is on board the film set at Screen Gems.

Polaroid writer Blair Butler has penned the original script with revisions by Thompson.

The Bride revolves around a young woman who attends a grand destination wedding, unaware of the horrors around the corner.

Thompson's feature debut The Light of the Moon saw Brooklyn Nine-Nine star Stephanie Beatriz as a successful New York City architect who struggles to regain control of her life after an event turns her world upside down.

The film, which Thompson also wrote, edited and produced, won the audience award for best narrative feature at the 2017 SXSW Festival.

Her most recent project was the upcoming TV series The End, starring Frances O'Connor, Morgan Davies, and Harriet Walter.
