Sony Pictures Acquires Rights to Sebastian Silva's New Thriller

By The Woman In Black
February 17th, 2012

Sony Pictures Worldwide Acquisitions has pre-bought rights in the U.S. and other territories for Sebastian Silva's upcoming new thriller that's apparently now untitled. We thought it was called Magic, Magic, but it looks like that's changed for now.

Along with the U.S., SPWA’s deal includes rights in Canada, Latin America, Scandinavia, South Africa, and Eastern Europe.

The flick, which is written and directed by Silva, stars Michael Cera (Superbad), Juno Temple (Dirty Girl), Emily Browning (Sucker Punch), and Catalina Sandino Moreno (Maria Full of Grace). It revolves around a young American woman (Temple) vacationing with friends in a remote part of Chile who begins to mentally unravel and enters into a world of disturbing landscapes and crushing terror. The project is currently in pre-production with principal photography slated for early this year.

More soon!
