One project that seems to have slipped most of us by appears to be that of Canadian horror production ‘Becoming’. The new supernatural thriller that Bloody Disgusting have picked up on has already dived into post and stars both Justin Bartha (‘The Hangover’) and the incredibly delicious Rachel Nichols (‘P2’, ‘Raze’, ‘G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra’). The full plot synopsis which you can read below mentions “the tension of ‘The Shining'” which is a damn ballsy statement so we’ll see if the Omar Naim (‘Dead Awake’) helmed project can live up to such high expectations. Nichols’ (below) next role will be that of Tom Holland’s adaptation of horror novelist Stephen King’s ‘The Ten O’Clock People’. Head below for some early teaser art.
“Becoming is a dramatic supernatural thriller about Alex and Lisa, an ordinary couple who come face to face with an ancient evil. While on a road trip retracing family roots, Alex is gradually taken over by a malevolent entity, which slowly begins to replace his identity piece by piece. Though he still looks like the man she loves, this new Alex has dark and disturbing plans for Lisa, and will use her trust and love against her at every turn. By combining the naturalism of ‘Blue Valentine’ with the tension of ‘The Shining,’ ‘Becoming’ forges a new path for psychological horror.”
