‘The Devil’s Carnival’ Cast Revealing Themselves
Update: Check out vids on Flanery’s Twitter page too!
Those of you trolling the forums for Darren Lynn Bousman’s The Devil’s Carnival will have found speculation that the cast now consists of Repo! The Genetic Opera co-creator Terrance Zdunich, as well as Repo! stars Alexa Vega, Ogre (from Skinny Puppy) and Paul Sorvino. The members also state that Emilie Autumn and Sean Patrick Flanery have also joined previously announced Taryn Manning, Bill Moseley and Briana Evigan.
Bousman, who directed Repo!, Mother’s Day, Saw II-IV and The Barrens, wraps production today on the 45-minute experimental short about a carnival run by the devil.
The forum also was hiding a slew of banners (on display below) and behind-the-scenes imagery. There are also those who propose the short takes place in a 1930’s-themed hell, which is pretty rad. 
Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”
Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach wrote the script.
Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
