Some time again, New Regency went into manufacturing on a horror thriller referred to as Psycho Killer, based mostly on a screenplay written by Se7en scribe Andrew Kevin Walker. Gavin Polone, producer of Zombieland and the Walker-scripted 8MM, was on the helm of the movie, with Georgina Campbell (Barbarian) and Logan Miller (Escape Room) in lead roles and 6’5″+ former skilled wrestler James Preston Rogers within the title position. A yr has already handed since we heard that the movie had earned an R score for sturdy bloody violence, sturdy sexual content material, graphic nudity, drug use and language. We’re lastly going to have the prospect to see Psycho Killer when Walt Disney Studios / twentieth Century brings it to theatres on February 20, 2026 – they usually have determined to kick off spooky season by unveiling the primary trailer for the movie! You’ll be able to test it out within the embed above, and it appears like this one goes to be a wild experience.
Campbell is taking over the position of Jane Thorne, a police officer who makes it her mission to take down a serial killer referred to on the information because the ‘Satanic Slasher,’ following the homicide of her state trooper husband. We had beforehand heard that Miller’s character is Marvin, a goth-type nebbish who works for the mysterious Pendleton in his large mansion. Pendleton is so mysterious, Deadline didn’t even clarify who they had been referencing once they dropped that description. Of their launch date report, they credited Miller with enjoying the ill-fated state trooper husband… so this film is so shrouded in thriller, even Deadline is confused.
New Regency produced Psycho Killer with Roy Lee, Walker, Miri Yoon, and Matt Berenson. Constantin Movie is co-financing.
Psycho Killer is a mission that spent a number of years in improvement hell. It first hit the information again in early 2009, when Limp Bizkit frontman Fred Durst was set to direct. Durst had moved on by late 2010, by which era Eli Roth was planning to supply it with Eric Newman, his co-producer on The Final Exorcism. They ultimately moved on as effectively. Polone got here on board through the Roth and Newman days, and has lastly managed to get the movie into manufacturing. As years glided by, a 2007 draft of the screenplay made its means on-line, so will probably be fascinating to see if and the way issues modified throughout this lengthy journey. I’ve been wanting ahead to this film for sixteen years already, and now that I’ve seen a trailer for it, I’m much more concerned with seeing it.
