It star Sophia Lillis has jumped on board to take on the lead role in the upcoming film Gretel and Hansel, which is a reimagining of the classic Brothers Grimm fairy tale from Orion Pictures.
The story is described as being set “a long time ago in a distant fairy tale countryside and focuses on a young girl who leads her little brother into a dark wood in desperate search of food and work, only to stumble upon a nexus of terrifying evil.”
Sounds like a it could be a fun and spooky horror thriller! The movie is being developed by writter and director Osgood Perkins, who wrote and directed the haunted-house horror movies The Blackcoat’s Daughter and I Am the Pretty Thing That Lives in the House.
Lillis is a talented young actress and this should be a fun new project for her to be a part of.
