TWC-Dimension announced today that they
have acquired worldwide rights to Intrepid
Pictures' supernatural thriller The Bye Bye Man ,
with a proceed-to-production commitment.
The script was adapted by Jonathan Penner
( Let The Devil Wear Black) from the short story
"The Bridge to Body Island" by Robert Damon
Schneck, which chronicles the harrowing events
experienced by three Wisconsin college students
in the early 1990s. Stacy Title ( The Last Supper ,
Snoop Dogg's Hood of Horror , and the Oscar-
nominated short Down on the Waterfront ) will
direct. The log line and plot details are currently
being kept under wraps.
Trevor Macy will produce through his Intrepid
Pictures banner with Marc D. Evans and David
Prior as executive producers. Overseeing
production for TWC-Dimension are Matthew
Signer, EVP of Production and Creative Affairs
for TWC-Dimension, and Keith Levine , SVP of
Production and Development.
Here's what Matthew Signer had to say in a
brief statement.
"There are only a few truly scary and iconic
characters within this genre, and we think The
Bye Bye Man , has the potential to be the next
one. Trevor and Stacy will be great partners in
bringing this fantastic and terrifying script to the
screen."
