Alexandre Aja continues to dabble in horror, setting up his next project over at Searchlight Pictures, the newly owned Disney label behind Radio Silence’s Ready or Not and Scott Cooper and Guillermo del Toro’s forthcoming Antlers.
Aja (Crawl, High Tension, Mirrors, The Hills Have Eyes, Piranha 3D) is set to direct the horror feature Elijah, which “follows a young boy who invites a mysterious man into his home, believing the stranger to be the key to saving his sick mother. As increasingly disturbing things start to happen around his home, the boy soon realizes that the sinister stranger is not the savior he claims to be.”
The Last Witch Hunter scribe Cory Goodman sold the original pitch to Searchlight before Aja came in to direct, and rewrite with Gregory Levasseur (Mirrors, P2), says Deadline.
Producers are David Goyer and Keith Levine of Phantom Four (The Night House) and Adam Goldworm of Aperture Entertainment.
Searchlight’s SVP of Production DanTram Nguyen is overseeing the project with Manager Apolline Berty.
