Not to be confused with “The Munsters” redux “Mockingbird Lane”, what we have on tap here is some casting news for director Bryan Bertino’s (The Strangers) new found footage flick for Universal.

Todd Stashwick, Audrey Marie Anderson, and Alexa Lydon are set to star in Mockingbird, a Blumhouse thriller.

The project falls under the micro-budget film label run by Jason Blum; the production banner has a first look deal with Universal. Blum is producing with Adrienne Biddle, Marc Platt, Adam Siegel and Bryan Bertino. Bertino is directing the movie, which will begin shooting April in Los Angeles.

The project, formerly known as Red Balloons, tells the story a couple who are given a camera and a set of instructions. They must carry out what’s on the document or someone will die. Stashwick will play the husband, Anderson his wife. Lydon’s part is unknown.

Synopsis
Found footage thriller centering on three cameras that are given to three separate households on the same night with instructions to keep filming if they want to live, but as the night wears on, the characters are pulled into a deadly confrontation with each other at the behest of their unseen tormentor.
