Michelle Monaghan Set To Star in Brad Anderson's Psychological Thriller BLOOD
Michelle Monaghan is teaming up with director Brad Anderson (Session 9, The Machinist) for a new psychological thriller titled Blood.
Monaghan will take on the role of Jess, “a separated mother and nurse who moves with her daughter and young son Owen back into her old family farmhouse. Shortly after settling in, Owen is bitten by the family dog, resulting in a mysterious infection from the bite. When Jess discovers a disturbing cure, she is tested to the extent will she go to keep her child alive.”
That sounds like it could be an interesting story. I’m curious to find out what this “disturbing cure” is, and how the story of this woman and her family plays out.
I’ve enjoyed the films that Anderson has made as a director and I hope that this project turns out to be another good one for him. The fact that he landed Monaghan in the lead role is definitely a pig plus! Monaghan will next be seen in Zoe Lister-Jones’ The Craft, the Blumhouse reboot of the 1996 feature, and she recently wrapped production on Christine Jeffs’ Every Breath You Take, starring opposite Casey Affleck and Sam Claflin.
Will Honley (The Hive, Bloodline) wrote the script for Blood.
