Colm Meaney Is A Member Of ‘The Occult’
Colm Meaney (pictured inside; “Hell On Wheels”, Get Him To The Greek) is the latest actor to join The Occult for The Grey producer Mickey Liddell.
Per The Hollywood Reporter, “Colm Meaney, one of the co-stars of AMC’s Hell on Wheels, has joined the cast of The Occult, an indie thriller from LD Entertainment.”
Rufus Sewell (Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, Dark City), Anne Heche (Rampart, Nothing to Fear) and newcomer Alycia Debnam-Carey have all been announced for the thriller which The Roommate director Christian Christiansen will helm.
“Story follows a small commune dealing with a prophecy that predicts the coming of the Devil’s daughter. As the shared 18th birthday of five girls approaches, a sequence of murders causes panic to spread through the community, making some wonder whether the prophecy is coming true or if someone is silencing those who know too much.”
The Occult goes into production this month in North Carolina. 
The classic murder-mystery game Clue is headed back to screens both big and small, with Variety reporting this week that Sony is planning potential film and television adaptations.
Variety reports, “Hasbro Entertainment has closed a deal with Sony‘s TriStar Pictures and Sony Pictures Television for the film and TV rights for the beloved board game.”
“Sony is the perfect partner to adapt a property as culturally impactful and mystery-defining as ‘Clue,’” said Hasbro’s Zev Foreman and Gabriel Marano. “Nicole Brown, Katherine Pope, and their teams are tremendous creative collaborators and ideal partners to help us figure out after 75 years if it was Colonel Mustard in the conservatory with the candlestick.”
Clue was created way back in 1943 by Anthony E. Pratt, and the board game was of course notably turned into a feature film starring Tim Curry in 1985 and a mini-series in 2011.
Ryan Reynolds had more recently been attached to star in a remake for 20th Century Studios, while Fox Entertainment had been developing an animated series a few years back.
