Nearly ten years have passed since we got a new installment of the Silent Hill franchise. Now, out of nowhere the original director, Christopher Gans has revealed that a new Silent Hill movie is in the works.
While speaking with the website Allocine, Gans teased not only a new Silent Hill but a Project Zero (known as Fatal Frame in the United States) adaptation as well.
I have two horror film projects with [producer] Victor Hadida,” Gans told the French site. “I am working on the adaptation of the video game Project Zero. The film will take place in Japan. I especially don’t want to uproot the game from its Japanese haunted house steeting. And we’re also working on a new Silent Hill.
Silent Hill, and adaptation of the video game of the same name, made its debut back in 2006 and starred Radha Mitchell, Sean Bean, and Laurie Holden. When her adoptive father disappears, Sharon Da Silva (Jodelle Ferland) is drawn into a strange and terrifying alternate reality that holds answers to the horrific nightmares that have plagued her since childhood.
