I love Emily Blunt. And the thought of her in a horror movie makes me happy. Which is why I’m happy right now. Read on to find out what the hell I’m talking about!

As reported by The Wrap, Ms. Blunt is attached to star in an upcoming psychological thriller called Sister, an adaptation of Rosamund Lupton’s best-selling novel of the same name. Interestingly enough, Blunt’s sister in real life is a literary agent who represents the book, making this one a true family affair. As I learned firsthand in my high school years, the only thing better than one blunt is two!

Kevin McCormick is developing the film under his Langley Park banner, with StudioCanal financing the development. A screenwriter has not yet been found.

The London-based mystery follows Beatrice (Blunt) as she investigates the death of her younger sister Tess, whose death is ruled a suicide by police. Convinced that her sister was murdered, Beatrice sets out to uncover the strange events leading up to Tess’ death, though she may pay a terrible price for the truth.
