Writer Simon Barrett (You’re Next, The Guest) and director Evan Katz (The Haunting of Bly Manor , Cheap Thrills) have teamed up on a new action-horror film called Azrael, and a first-look image (above) has emerged.
The image shows Samara Weaving (Ready or Not, Mayhem), who leads the cast. Producers include Barrett and Dan Kagan.
According to Deadline, “the film is set in a world in which no one speaks and follows a devout female-led community which hunts down a young woman who has escaped her imprisonment. Recaptured by its ruthless leaders, Azrael (Weaving) is due to be sacrificed to pacify an ancient evil deep within the surrounding wilderness—but she has other ideas.
Azrael is currently in post-production.
