True Blood alum Ryan Kwanten and Oscar winner J.K. Simmons (who is again nominated this year for his role in Being the Ricardos and was most recently seen in Spider-Man: No Way Home) will star in supernatural horror film Glorious, Deadline reveals.

The film, which is almost completed, follows a young man (Kwanten) who is spiralling out of control after a messy breakup. His situation only worsens when he finds himself locked inside a rest stop bathroom with a mysterious figure (Simmons) speaking to him from an adjacent stall. As he tries to escape, he realises he is an unwilling player in a much bigger, graver situation than he first thought.

Rebekah McKendry (All the Creatures Were Stirring, Psycho Granny) directs from a script by Todd Rigney, Joshua Hull (Chopping Block) and David Ian McKendry.

James Norrie of AMP International, which has launched sales on the project, promises that “Glorious is so deliciously bonkers that people are going to be talking about it for years.” Meanwhile, McKendry adds that “Glorious speaks to my love of cosmic horror, gore, absurdist humour, philosophy, and the type of transgressive movies that leave you thinking, ‘I can’t believe I just saw that.'”

That sure sounds promising!
