We’ve had a lot of casting news come our way lately for the upcoming horror comedy The Babysitter, but finally the lead role has been cast! Variety is reporting that MTV’s “Scream” star Bella Thorne (pictured) has joined New Line Cinema’s latest foray into fear.
The cast includes Samara Weaving as the titular babysitter, Judah Lewis, Robbie Amell, and Andrew Bachelor (aka internet personality King Bach).
Terminator Salvation‘s McG is directing from Brian Duffield’s script, which received top placement on the 2014 Blacklist. The story centers on a 12-year-old boy and his babysitter on a night when things take an unexpected turn for the worst.
Production will take place in Los Angeles during the fall.
