Scott Derrickson just scored a big hit with Sinister and it appears he planning to stay in paranormal chiller territory, as The Wrap reports Eric Bana is in talks to star in Derrickson’s upcoming film, Beware The Night.
Derrickson is set to both direct and co-write (with Paul Boardman) the paranormal police thriller, which follows a New York police officer investigating real life demon possessions, exorcisms and werewolves after dark. Mark Wahlberg was previously under consideration for the lead role, but he passed and so now Eric Bana has entered negotiations.
It isn’t known how close Bana is to signing on or when the movie might go into production.
