Untitled Universal Monster Thriller

While plot details are still under wraps, the outlet states “the project was at one point titled Dracula’s Daughter,” and centered “on a group of kidnappers who abduct a band of young people, one of whom ends up being the titular character. Woe then betides the kidnappers.”

Star Wars: Skeleton Crew
Jude Law suggested his Skeleton Crew may not always be safe for its kid heroes in a new interview with Empire.
[Younglings] need guidance, but they’re vulnerable. And so throughout, the people they meet, you question all of them. Is my character nice? Is he not? You just want them to be alright and get back home. But if you know Jon and Chris’ work, you’ll know that the kids aren’t always safe. Seeing this galaxy, this world that we’ve all grown up loving, and the jeopardy, the divides, the heroes, the villains, through the eyes of children, is brilliant.
