Fresh off Ready or Not 2: Here I Come, genre favorite Kathryn Newton will star opposite Nick Jonas (Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle) in the holiday horror film White Elephant, Deadline reports.
Eli Craig (Tucker and Dale vs Evil, Clown in a Cornfield) is directing from a script he co-wrote with JT Billings (“Are You Afraid of the Dark?”), with Radio Silence (Ready or Not, Scream 5-6) producing.
The logline reads: “Eight friends. One prize. Zero trust. Their annual festive holiday gift exchange spirals into a cutthroat game of Christmas carnage.”
The project is the first under MRC’s partnership with Radio Silence and Project X, dubbed RSPX, oriented around inventive and engaging horror and thriller projects.
Spencer Berman, Nick Jonas, William Sherak, Paul Neinstein, James Vanderbilt, Tyler Gillett, and Matt Bettinelli-Olpin are producing, with Billings, Ryan McDonough, Amanda Drake, Newton, Scott Levine, and Chad Villella executive producing.
White Elephant began production this week. We’ll keep you posted on more casting news.
