Ok, so we have a studio, a director, a producer, and a star. What could be next? A title maybe? Oh silly you! Of course not! That will come later down the road but we do have the skinny on who else is in talks for Scott Derrickson’s ultra-hush-hush film!

According to Bloody Disgusting Juliet Rylance (pictured right; Animal) is in final talks to join the currently untitled found footage movie film from director Derrickson (The Exorcism of Emily Rose, The Day the Earth Stood Still) that stars Ethan Hawke.

Jason Blum is producing with Brian Kavanaugh-Jones’ Automatik Entertainment and shooting starts in September. Deadline reports that the movie will cost under $5 million, but the success of the Blum-produced micro-budget horror pics Paranormal Activity and Insidious ramped up the bidding on the project.

From a script by Derrickson and C. Robert Cargill, “Hawke plays a journalist who travels with his family around the country to investigate gruesome murders he turns into books. After he moves his family into a house where another family was murdered, the journo discovers found footage that unveils horrifying clues beyond what caused the original tragedy.”
