STRANGER THINGS Star Finn Wolfhard to Star in RULES FOR WEREWOLVES
Finn Wolfhard (Stranger Things, It, Ghostbusters: Afterlife) is set to star in Rules For Werewolves, a dramatic thriller which is based on a short that will premiere at SXSW in Austin next month. That short film was based on a novel by Kirk Lynn, who also adapted the screenplay.
The short was directed by Jeremy Schaulin-Rioux, and he is also set to helm the feature film as well, which he will start shooting in late 2020 or early 2021.
The story is told mostly through “a single-take and investigates the rituals and rhythms of a pack of wild teens as they break in and loot a new home, leaving someone (or something) behind for the cops to find.”
Wolfhard had this to say in a statement:
“This short film represents the fourth time I’ve worked with Jeremy Schaulin-Rioux. He’s one of Canada’s most imaginative directors, and I look forward to collaborating with him again as we take Kirk Lynn’s provocative text and expand this short into a very strong feature reflecting teenage lives in the wild and anxious era.”
Schaulin-Rioux added:
“Rules for Werewolves is the kind of movie I’m desperate to see and dying to make, especially with the dream team of Kirk, Finn, our producing team, Boldly and co-star Kelcey Mawema. Premiering the short at SXSW is a very exciting way to share a glimpse of this amazing new world.”
Does this sound like a film that you might be interested in watching?
