Clown in a Cornfield and Tucker & Dale vs. Evil director Eli Craig is the gift that keeps on giving, and next up, he’s opening the holiday horror White Elephant.
As previously reported, Nick Jonas and Kathryn Newton (Freaky, Abigail, Ready or Not 2) lead the cast, with production underway.
Freshly cast are KJ Apa (pictured above in Riverdale), Madeleine Arthur (Devil in Ohio), Josh Brener (Silicon Valley), Ashley Park (Emily in Paris), Alexandra Shipp (Anyone but You), and Justice Smith (I Saw the TV Glow), reports Deadline.
Here’s the logline: “Eight friends. One prize. Zero trust. Their annual festive holiday gift exchange spirals into a cutthroat game of Christmas carnage.”
Craig is directing from a script by JT Billings, having completed additional writing himself for the project.
MRC is the studio financing the film. Spencer Berman and Nick Jonas are producing for Powered By Jonas, along with William Sherak, Paul Neinstein and James Vanderbilt for Project X, Tyler Gillett, and Matt Bettinelli-Olpin (Radio Silence). Exec producers are Billings, Ryan McDonough, Amanda Drake, Newton, Scott Levine, and Chad Villella.
