It’s been almost two years since we last reported on Steven C. Miller‘s werewolf movie Year 2,starring Frank Grillo. The filmmaker has offered recent updates on social media, teasing that the long wait for action werewolf carnage is nearly over and that it appears to have a new title: Werewolves.

The premise for Werewolves is described as “a supermoon event caused a latent gene to turn everyone exposed to the moonlight into a werewolf for one night. Millions died—and now, the supermoon is back.”

Katrina Law (“NCIS”) stars alongside Grillo as the brilliant geneticist, Dr. Amy Chen, who goes on a dangerous journey with Grillo’s character to saved loved ones, against a ticking clock.

That setup sounds like The Purge: Anarchy but with werewolves, and we’re so in.

Thanks to Miller’s posts on Twitter yesterday and today, we know that the filmmaker has been hard at work on completing post-production for the action-horror film. “Finishing touches in the DI on WEREWOLVES this week,” Miller tweeted.

The updates also give teases of star Frank Grillo and a werewolf in action, both below.

The rest of the cast includes:

Lou Diamond Phillips plays Dr. Aranda, the Head of the CDC, tasked with finding a cure for the werewolf pandemic.

Ilfenesh Hadera plays Lucy, Wesley’s (Frank Grillo) sister-in-law who is alone with her daughter in their heavily fortified house as it comes under attack from a wolf horde.

And Johnathon Schaech plays Cody, Lucy’s neighbor, hard-core veteran and wolf-killer.

The film hails from The Solution Entertainment and is helmed by Steven C. Miller, director of Dimension Extreme’s The Aggression Scale, Bloody Disgusting’s Under the Bed, Silent Night, the remake of Silent Night, Deadly Night, and Margaux. He’s gone on to direct several action films including Escape Plan 2 and Marauders. It is produced by Myles Nestel (Blacklight), Craig Chapman (Honest Thief) and Sevier Crespo (Mack & Moxy).

Frank Grillo starred in The Purge: Anarchy, The Purge: Election Year, Beyond Skyline, and many, many more.

With post-production almost complete, expect to hear a lot more about Werewolves in the near future. Stay tuned.
