Gore Verbinski Finds A Cure for Wellness; First Casting Details
We learned at the tail end of last year that Gore Verbinski (The Ring) is returning to horror with a film titled A Cure for Wellness, and at the time we promised we’d have more info real soon. That day has arrived, as casting news and plot details have been revealed. Read on!
THR reports that Verbinski has found the stars for his upcoming supernatural horror project, casting Dane DeHaan (Chronicle) and Mia Goth (Nymphomaniac: Vol. II) in the lead roles.
Wellness tells the story of an employee (DeHaan) who is sent to rescue his boss from a European “wellness spa” but soon realizes he’s trapped and discovers that the facility has a more sinister purpose than just serving the health needs of its patients. Goth, who is in negotiations for the role, will play a longtime patient who is oblivious to the spa director’s dark designs for her.
Production is slated to start in Europe in June, and the film will be distributed worldwide through New Regency’s deal with 20th Century Fox.
