Elisabeth Moss Confirmed For Leigh Whannell’s ‘The Invisible Man’

One of the horror films we’re most looking forward to next is Leigh Whannell‘s Universal Monster reboot of The Invisible Man, which he wrote and will direct. Universal and Blumhouse are teaming up for the film which will hopefully put Universal’s Dark Universe back on track after The Mummy failed to please fans and critics back in 2017. Last month we reported that “The Handmaid’s Tale” actress Elisabeth Moss was in negotiations to star. We can now confirm that the talented actress has now officially signed. Johnny Depp was originally attached but is no longer involved with the project. In the original 1933 film, a scientist finds a way of becoming invisible, but in doing so, he becomes murderously insane. We’ve since seen the film rebooted and remade. It’s also inspired several films including 2000’s Hollow Man.

Jordan Peele’s ‘Us’ Has A New Relese Date

Earlier today it was announced that Jordan Peele‘s Us will make its premiere at SXSW this March. We’ve learned as a consequence, the official release date has been pushed back, but not by much. Oscar winner Lupita Nyong’o stars as Adelaide Wilson, a woman returning to her beachside childhood home for a getaway along with her husband, Gabe (Winston Duke) and their two children (Shahadi Wright Joseph, Evan Alex). Haunted by an unexplainable and unresolved trauma from her past and compounded by a string of eerie coincidences, Adelaide feels her paranoia elevate to high-alert as she grows increasingly certain that something bad is going to befall her family. Soon she will learn her worries are warranted. After spending a tense beach day with their friends, the Tylers (Emmy winner Elisabeth Moss, Tim Heidecker, Cali Sheldon, Noelle Sheldon), Adelaide and her family return to their vacation home. When darkness falls, the Wilsons discover four figures standing at the bottom of their
