‘Twilight’ Stars Offered Roles in ‘Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters’
MTV caught up with Adam McKay, producer on Tommy Wirkola’s Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters, which explores how things played out for the poor siblings 15 years after that whole gingerbread house incident. Simply put, they’re now specialized bounty hunters looking to put down the cackling black-hat set. The producer revealed that the script is done and carries “a steampunk vibe mixed with a little bit of a goth edge and hyper-cartoon violence like ‘Kick-Ass’, ” adding, “It’s not a comedy…It’s like a Sam Raimi-type horror movie, like ‘Evil Dead II,’ only a little nastier, a little more modern.” He also reveals that offers were made to some of the Twilight cast (why, I don’t know) and that shooting is slated to begin this fall. I personally think Dead Snow is overrated crap, but with a little guidance I think Wirkola could deliver a solid genre pic. I’m looking forward to this.

‘Who’s Watching’ Official Trailer – In Every City in America, There’s a Man Like Caleb…
From director Tim Kasher, the upcoming indie horror movie Who’s Watching was first brought to our attention when a flash drive containing creepy footage was sent to the Bloody Disgusting offices back in 2024. We didn’t know it at the time, but it was the first wave of viral marketing for Who’s Watching, which now has an official trailer as well as a release date.
Dark Sky Films will release the psychological horror thriller Who’s Watching on digital platforms and in select theaters across the United States on September 18, 2026.
It’ll be playing at Roxy Cinema in New York City and Laemmle’s Glendale in Los Angeles.

The film marks the latest feature from the frontman of influential indie rock bands Cursive and The Good Life. Bringing his signature blend of confessional storytelling, dark humor, and psychological depth to the screen, Kasher crafts an unsettling tale that blurs the line between paranoia and reality.
In Who’s Watching, “Eccentric musician and aspiring filmmaker Caleb becomes obsessed with his new coworker, Krista, secretly documenting every aspect of her life in an effort to make her the subject of his latest film. As Caleb’s fixation intensifies, the lines between observer and participant begin to blur, pulling him deeper into a dangerous spiral of surveillance, manipulation and obsession. As the cameras keep rolling, the question becomes increasingly unsettling: who is really watching who?”
Who’s Watching stars Zachary Ray Sherman (A Desert, Under the Banner of Heaven), alongside Gracie Gillam (Superhost, Fright Night, Teen Beach Movie), Olivia Luccardi (It Follows, Soft & Quiet, The Baltimorons), and Steve Berg (Don’t Worry Darling, Tag).
The film is produced by Tim Kasher, Maher Jafari, Liz Renner, and Josh Ethier.
Greg Newman, Executive Vice President of Dark Sky Films said in a statement, “Tim Kasher has spent his career exploring relationships and the darker corners of human behavior through his music, and Who’s Watching brings those same themes to the screen in a deeply unsettling way.”
Writer/Director Tim Kasher adds, “This film has been over a decade in the making, evolving through countless drafts before becoming the story it is today. I’m incredibly proud of what we created, and the performances from Zachary Ray Sherman, Gracie Gillam and Olivia Luccardi brought it to life in ways I could never have imagined. I’m thrilled to finally share this creepy story with audiences and to bring it on the road for these special screenings.”
