Included in the announcement of Lionsgate acquiring Studio Canal’s The Last Exorcism, it was also announced that the French studio will reteam once again with Strike Entertainment and Eli Roth (Hostel, Cabin Fever) on psychological thriller The Other Woman. The pic will be helmed by Huck Botko and Andrew Gurland, who are currently writing the screenplay. Woman, about a scorned mistress who makes a film for her ex-lover, is set to shoot in late spring. Roth said the pic will delve into “the worst nightmares of those who have had extramarital affairs and the sickest fantasies of those who have been scorned.” StudioCanal is presenting the pic to buyers at Berlin’s EFM mart this week. Botko and Gurland also wrote The Last Exorcism (previously known as Cotton), which they originally were slated to direct.
