Justin Long ("Jeepers Creepers", "Barbarian") and Iris Apatow ("Pretty Lethal", "Funny People") are in negotiations to star in the survival thriller "Stung" from director Colin Minihan ("What Keeps You Alive", "Coyotes"). Additional casting and production details will be announced in the coming months.
The film is set against the backdrop of suburban isolation and mounting paranoia, and it follows four teenage girls whose innocent sleepover spirals into a nightmare when they become trapped inside a luxury Orange County home overtaken by a massive swarm of Africanized killer bees.
"Stung" is produced by Andre Relis & Jib Polhemus ("The Night Driver"). Minihan had this to say about the project: "'Stung' taps into a very primal fear. You're trapped, isolated, and under attack from something unstoppable. But beneath the horror, it's also a story about friendship, trust, and survival under pressure".
Relis and Polhemus added: "We were immediately drawn to the film's contained intensity and commercial concept. Colin has a fantastic visual style and a strong command of suspense, and we believe Stung has the potential to become a standout genre title for audiences worldwide".
