Nearly all of our favorite horror icons are returning to the big screen in the next couple years, and the chainsaw-wielding maniac is no exception. Directed by French filmmakers Alexandre Bustillo and Julien Maury (Inside), the prequel Leatherface is revving its way into our lives, and we’ve got another little tease for ya today.
Check out a couple new images below, courtesy of Christa Campbell and Jessica Madsen on Instagram!
Vanessa Grasse stars as Lizzy, a young nurse at a mental hospital who’s kidnapped by a group of violent teenagers and taken on a road trip from hell. Lili Taylor portrays Verna Sawyer; Sam Coleman, Sam Strike, and James Bloor star as the potential Leatherfaces; and Stephen Dorff stars as a lean, mean Texas Ranger who has a vendetta against the teen boy who grows up to become Leatherface.
The cast also includes Nicole Andrews, Julian Kostov, Jessica Madsen, and Lorina Kamburova. Leatherface was written by up-and-coming genre scribe Seth M. Sherwood.
Lionsgate has picked up distribution rights here in the States. No word on a release date yet, but we’ll keep an eye on things for you. Millennium Films, which was behind the 2013 Texas Chainsaw 3D, is once again producing with Christa Campbell, Lati Grobman, and Carl Mazzacone for Lionsgate.
Synopsis:
In this prequel to The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, a young nurse is kidnapped by a group of violent teens who escape from a mental hospital and take her on a road trip from hell. Pursued by an equally deranged lawman out for revenge, one of these teens is destined for tragedy and horrors that will destroy his mind, molding him into the monster we now call Leatherface.
