Maika Monroe (Longlegs) is set to star in Chloe Okuno’s next film Brides, according to a report on Deadline. The duo previously worked together on the 2022 feature Watcher.
The film is said to be “Set in 1960s Italy, Sally Bishop (Monroe) and her husband travel to a remote villa in the wake of Sally’s nervous breakdown. The villa’s owner, a mysterious count, takes a peculiar interest in Sally. But he gets far more than he anticipated when Sally’s feminist chaos is added to his perfect, violent Eden of vampire brides.
Anthony Bregman and Stefanie Azpiazu are producing through their Likely Story banner.
“Brides is set to redefine the horror genre with Choe Okuno’s unique blend of feminist themes and gory visuals,” said Bregman. “The script is dynamic and unsettling in all the best ways. Chloe always brings such dread and complexity to her characters, and we can’t wait to work with her and Maika to bring Sally to life or to un-death as the case may be.”
The film will begin shooting in the Spring of 2025. Keep it locked to Horror News Network for more on Brides.
