Patricia Arquette and Tom Felton are on board to star in They Will Kill You, the thriller produced by the new horror label Nocturna Pictures, which was created by Skydance and Andy and Barbara Muschietti. 

New Line is co-financing and distributing the feature, which will be directed by Kirill Sokolov when filming begins in mid-September. Sokolov co-wrote the script with Alex Litvak.

Zazie Beetz is toplining the film, which is being described as a horror laced with black comedy, and tells the story of a woman (Beetz) who answers a help wanted ad to be a housekeeper in a mysterious high-rise in New York City, not realising she is entering a community that has seen a number of disappearances over the years and may be under the grip of a Satanic cult. The project has also been described as a tonal mix of Radio Silence’s Ready or Not and The Raid.

Arquette reportedly plays the head of the co-op in They Will Kill You, while Felton will play a member of the cult. Patricia Arquette is best known for her work on Boyhood, True Romance, and the television series Medium, and has recently starred in Apple TV+’s Severance. Tom Felton is best known for portraying Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter film franchise.
