Alice Eve Set To Star in Haunted Ship Horror Film THE QUEEN MARY; First in a Planned Trilogy
Alice Eve (Belgravia, Star Trek) is set to star in an upcoming haunted ship horror film titled The Queen Mary. It’s explained that this is the first in a planned trilogy of horror movies inspired by the hauntings on-board the infamous ocean liner.
Gary Shore (Dracula Untold) will direct the film based on a screenplay he wrote with Stephen Oliver and Tom Vaughan. Plot details haven’t been revealed, but the films are “inspired by stories of hauntings on the famed ocean liner that is now permanently docked in Long Beach, CA.”
I’ve visited The Queen Mary a couple of times and it’s really cool! I never saw or heard any ghosts, but I’m very familiar with all of the stories. I’ve been fascinated by the stories of haunting on that ship ever since I was a kid. It’ll be fun to see some of those stories brought to life.
For those of you who don’t know, the ocean liner was named Time Magazine’s most haunted place in the world and receives two million visitors each year.
Producer Brett Tomberlin shared in a statement: “We were immediately obsessed with Gary’s intelligent and twisted multi-film take on a great American legend and could not be more excited working with an extremely gifted actor in bringing this story to audiences around the world.”
Shore added: “I’m fascinated, obsessed and disturbed by this ship – there’s something very dark and human about her. It’s a stylistic tightrope between reverence and horror.”
Eve most recently starred in Julian Fellowes Downtown Abbey follow-up Belgravia and is currently shooting The Power for Amazon.
