Tatiana Maslany (She-Hulk) and Jasmin Savoy Brown (Scream) will team up to join Josh Ruben’s horror flick Green Bank which will be produced by Protagonist Pictures. The studio is currently introducing global sales on the film, which will be sold at the Berlin Film Festival.
Green Bank is written by Aaron Horwitz and the movie takes place in an American town where all forms of communication, such as Wi-Fi, cellphone, and radio transmission, are forbidden. It follows an infant sleep trainer played by Brown, who will discover the dark secrets of the parents and that they are more than the yuppies they appear to be.
Josh Ruben’s Upcoming Green Bank Movie Is Set To Change The Horror Genre
Director Josh Ruben believes that horror films sell fast, and the current box office is proof of that claim. He told Variety:
“In a marketplace where original, horror-thrillers slay at the box office, we need no further proof that audiences want to have fun at the movies again. That’s the magic word. Fun. Horror is the bulletproof genre, and ‘Green Bank’ has the full package — it’s smart, scary, and wickedly funny.”
Protagonist Pictures CEO, Dave Bishop believes that Ruben has got the talent to scare the fans:
“Josh has envisioned a perfectly paced roller coaster of a horror that expertly delivers on its promise to jolt, thrill, and terrify audiences, all while keeping them grinning from ear to ear.”
The executive head also promised that the movie would provide a fresh take on the horror genre.
“‘Green Bank’ is wall-to-wall, fright-filled fun led by a fiercely talented cast hailing from beloved franchises. This fresh, subversive take on the genre, which continues to dominate at the box office, is the perfect offering for our partners.”
Ruben has proved his mastery of the horror genre, as his previous works have been featured in several prestigious events. His debut film, Scare Me, premiered at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival, while his second project, Werewolves Within, received critical acclaim at the 2021 Tribeca Film Festival. It also won Best Indie Movie at the Hollywood Critics Association Midseason Award.
