Universal Pictures is developing a new film set in monster hunter Van Helsing’s world with Julius Avery of Overlord fame to direct and horror master James Wan to produce.
The studio’s blockbuster hit in The Invisible Man breathed new life into Universal’s decision to rejig its horror film library.
According to Deadline, Wan will produce with Michael Clear through his Atomic Monster banner, with Judson Scott will serving as executive producer.
The logline for the script is being kept under wraps and it is unknown how Helsing will be used in this film, billed as horror/thriller.
