Stone age horrors will be unleashed in the upcoming The Origin, an intriguing new horror project that Variety reports on this morning. Bleecker Street has acquired North American rights on the film, which is set during the Palaeolithic period – 45,000 years in the past!
Bleecker Street is planning a fall-winter 2023 release.
“The horror film follows a disparate gang of early humans who band together in search of a new land. But when they suspect a malevolent, mystical being is hunting them down, the clan is forced to confront a horrifying danger they never imagined.”
Safia Oakley-Green (“Sherwood”), Chuku Modu (“Captain Marvel”), Kit Young (“Shadow and Bone”), Iola Evans (“Choose or Die”), Luna Mwezi (“Needle Park Baby”), and Arno Luening (“Divine Comedy”) star alongside Rosebud Melarkey and Tyrell Mhlanga.
Andrew Cumming directed The Origin for Sony Pictures’ Stage 6. Ruth Greenberg (Run) wrote the script, while Oliver Kassman (Saint Maud) produced the horror film.
