Sami Raimi’s ‘Magic’ Remake Officially Moving Forward

Supergirl gets a logo, Elisabeth Moss gets her own Substance treatment, and Young Frankenstein elects Cary Elwes as the President of the United States.

Perfect Girl

Deadline reports K-pop star Jeon Somi is set make her acting debut alongside previously announced cast members Arden Cho (KPop Demon Hunters) and Adeline Rudolph (Mortal Kombat II) in Perfect Girl, a horror-thriller described as”Scream meets Black Swan.” Naturally, the story concerns “a brand-new K-Pop super group preparing for their debut. With only four spots available in the band and the final cut a week away, the competition is off the charts. When a talented and mysterious new girl is introduced at the last minute, things start to get strange — girls are being hunted and attacked one by one, but who is responsible for the carnage, and more importantly…who will make the final cut?”

Anything But Ghosts

THR also reports that Curry Barker (Obsession) will direct, star, and co-write a new genre project titled Anything But Ghosts. Details on the plot are not available at this time.

Magic

Fangoria confirms that Sam Raimi is attached to produce a remake of 1978’s Magic from Freddy vs Jason screenwriters Mark Swift and Damian Shannon.

The Fetus

Deadline reports that The Fetus, an upcoming horror starring the Terrifier franchise’s Lauren LaVera, will be released direct-to-VOD on September 9. 

Supergirl

Thanks to a crew jacket, we now have our first look at the logo for Milly Alcock’s Supergirl movie, which has since dropped the subtitle “Woman of Tomorrow.”
