With Sinister 2 hitting theatres this weekend, Deadline is reporting that Blumhouse Productions is reuniting with that film’s director, Ciarán Foy, on The Shee, an elevated thriller Foy will direct.
Blumhouse’s Jason Blum will produce with Roads Entertainment’s Alan Maher and Foy’s own label, Shadow Aspect. Foy was tapped for the Sinister franchise after making his feature debut on Citadel, which he wrote and directed and which premiered at South by Southwest in 2012. The film got raves and won the festival’s Midnighter’s Audience Award.
Set in 1960’s Ireland, The Shee is the story of a troubled young woman who must confront her violent and tragic past when she travels to a remote island. Foy joins James Wan, James DeMonaco, and Scott Derrickson as directors who’ve done repeat business at Blum’s genre label. Pretty nice company.
More soon!
