Kiernan Shipka (Chilling Adventures of Sabrina) and McKenna Grace (Ghostbusters: Afterlife) are set to lead The Nowhere Game, a survival thriller to be directed by David Charbonier and Justin Douglas Powell (The Djinn).
The Nowhere Game will follow “Carin (Grace) and Allie (Shipka), whose road trip takes a harrowing turn when the two young women are kidnapped by a cold-blooded sadist and thrust into a brutal game of survival. With a short head start, Carin and Allie will be set loose in the forest with limited supplies while being hunted in front of an online audience watching in grim fascination. With no sign of civilization and no way to call for help, the women rely on their wits and each other to evade capture. Navigating the hostile wilderness, they discover eerie clues left behind by previous “contestants,” painting a grim picture of the stakes they face. As the hunter closes in, realization dawns on them: surviving isn’t just improbable — it’s nearly impossible. Carin and Allie must shed their fear and transform from prey to predator to bring this twisted game to its final, bloody conclusion.”
Charbonier and Powell will direct from a script written by Alex Pototsky with Erik Feig’s Picturestart producing. The directing duo are most known for their recent horror film Push and their debut The Boy Behind the Door.
Shipka and Grace are no strangers to the horror genre. In addition to Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, Shipka recently starred in Longlegs and Totally Killer while Grace has starred in The Haunting of Hill House, Annabelle Comes Home, the new Ghostbuster films and landed a role in the upcoming Scream 7.
