The Conjuring isn’t a great title for a horror movie, as it makes it sound like people will be stalked by David Copperfield, but that’s the current name of a new flick that’s jumping on the ‘true life’ (but not actually true at all) horror band wagon. Now Variety reports that Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson have signed on to star in the movie.
The movie is based on the allegedly true story of a Rhode Island family who claimed they, “lived among the dead,” with friendly and evil spirits residing in their farmhouse. It isn’t clear what roles Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson will play, but it seems likely they will play the husband and wife.
The film will see Patrick Wilson reunite with Insidious (and Saw) helmer James Wan. It isn’t certain when production will begin on The Conjuring.
