10 Upcoming Horror Movie Castings That Have Us Excited

10. Tatiana Maslany -- Green Bank

Tatiana Maslany hit the ground running with sci-fi thriller series Orphan Black back in 2013, in which she played 17 different cloned characters, and she has hardly stopped since, including recently drawing equal parts acclaim and ire from the online Marvel fandom for her portrayal of fan-favourite comic book character She-Hulk.

For our five cents, her casting in Josh Ruben's Green Bank is a win. Not to be confused with Spike Lee's least favourite road movie, Green Bank is currently in pre-production, and will follow an infant sleep-trainer (because that's a thing?) who uncovers a strange secret about the parents of the child she’s working with. The script situates the action in a US town where, conveniently, wi-fi, phone service and radio transmissions are forbidden, but not a whole lot more is known at present.

Maslany's forays into horror may have been few and far between recently, but she has her roots in the genre, starring in a string of them around the beginning of her film career, including George A Romero's Diary of the Dead (2007). Having been lost on rom-coms and dramas in the last few years, it will be great to see Maslany bring some of the range she displayed on Orphan Black to the silver screen with a director whose recent efforts (such as 2020's Scare Me), have comfortably straddled multiple genres.
