Fresh from going all screamy for Jason in the Friday the 13th remake, Danielle Panabaker is ready to perform for yet another horror icon!
THR reports that Panabaker will be starring opposite Amber Heard in John Carpenter's long awaited return to the big screen, The Ward, for Echo Lake Entertainment and A Bigger Boat.
The story follows a girl (Heard) who is admitted to a psychiatric ward, meets other girls there with distinct personalities, and discovers a mysterious girl haunting the halls at night. Panabaker will be playing a patient in the institution, a snobbish girl who flirts with orderlies and faces electroshock therapy.
Principal photography is scheduled to begin next month in Spokane, Washington.

Yeah, because of everything he's done in the past 20 years, this is something to get excited about.

Amber Heard AND Danielle Panabaker? It's like this movie is made just for me. The only person missing is Mary Elizabeth Winstead.
