A remake of Witchboard is on the way from Dream Warriors and The Blob director Chuck Russell, and Deadline brings us more casting news this afternoon.
Madison Iseman (I Know What You Did Last Summer), Aaron Dominguez (Only Murders in the Building), Antonia Desplat (Shantaram) and Charlie Tahan (Ozark) will star.
Previously announced, Jamie Campbell Bower (“Stranger Things”) also stars.
Russell will direct, and he also co-wrote the script with Greg McKay.
In writer/director Kevin S. Tenney’s original 1986 movie, “Friends playing with an Ouija board at a late-night party unleash a demonic spirit who begins hunting them.”
Here’s the plot synopsis for the remake:
“Emily, her fiancé Christian and a group of their friends open an organic café, refurbishing an old carriage house in New Orleans’ French Quarter. But a darkness descends over Emily when she discovers an ancient pendulum board, once used to summon spirits.
“Christian seeks help for Emily from occult expert Alexander Babtiste, but Babtiste has secrets of his own, knowing the fateful bloodlines that binds them all to the Witchboard. A modern coven of White Witches, a masked ball at Babtiste’s mansion, and the legacy of Naga Soth, the Queen of Witches, are all part of a dangerous game that puts Emily’s very soul at risk.”
