The Grudge director Takashi Shimizu’s latest project is titled Scared of the Dark and is being developed by Ghost House Pictures. We’ve received some new casting and character information, and wanted to share it with our readers.
It was previously announced that Morgane Slemp and David Gallagher were cast in the film. The movie will center around Olivia (Slemp) and her boyfriend Adam (Gallagher), and the story is said to be similar in nature to The Grudge. Other actors that have joined the cast include Dawn of the Dead‘s Jake Weber playing the part of Olivia’s father, Chloé Auger playing a younger Olivia, and Yuya Ozeki (The Grudge series).
Although not yet cast in the film, we hear that producers have been looking at Marielle Jaffe for the role of Olivia’s sister and it is looking likely that Alison Lohman will join the cast as Adam’s sister.
