Chilling Adventures of Sabrina stars Kiernan Shipka and Mckenna Grace are teaming up for the planned survival thriller .
The Nowhere Game will be produced by Erik Feig’s Picturestart, with David Charbonier and Justin Douglas Powell co-directing based on a script by Alex Pototsky. Other details about the feature, including the production start date, have yet to be unveiled.
Shipka is set to play Allie in The Nowhere Game, while Grace will portray Carin. The film will center on Allie and Carin, who are unwittingly thrown into a survival game in an isolated forest, with an online audience watching them as they fight for their lives.
Per Deadline’s description, the film will revolve around a road trip that takes “a harrowing turn when the two young women are kidnapped by a cold-blooded sadist and thrust into a brutal game of survival. With a short head start, Carin and Allie will be set loose in the forest with limited supplies while being hunted in front of an online audience watching in grim fascination.”
It added, “With no sign of civilization and no way to call for help, the women rely on their wits and each other to evade capture. Navigating the hostile wilderness, they discover eerie clues left behind by previous “contestants,” painting a grim picture of the stakes they face. As the hunter closes in, realization dawns on them: surviving isn’t just improbable — it’s nearly impossible. Carin and Allie must shed their fear and transform from prey to predator to bring this twisted game to its final, bloody conclusion.”
The Nowhere Game won’t be Shipka and Grace’s first project together, having recently starred as both Sabrina Spellman in Netflix’s Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, with Grace starring as the young Sabrina in flashback scenes.
Shipka had been signing on horror and thriller projects since the early years of her career, including in Carriers, The Blackcoat’s Daughter, and The Silence. The actress most recently starred in the slasher comedy Totally
