Deborah Ann Woll (True Blood, Daredevil) is set to star in the horror-thriller THE CYCLE, directed by Jordan Downey (The Head Hunter) and written by Downey and Kevin Stewart (The Head Hunter).

In the film, when the body of a man missing for thirty-six years is discovered at the scene of a horrific crime, it’s up to his estranged daughter to unravel his dark past.

The film is produced by James Harris and Mark Lane of Tea Shop Productions (The Fall, The Surfer), with The Exchange executive producing and handling international sales at the upcoming Marché du Film at Cannes. Shudder, AMC Networks’ premium streaming service for horror, thriller and the supernatural, will be handling distribution in the US and Canada, UK and Ireland, and Australia/New Zealand. The film is in pre-production and looking to shoot later this year.

“We are so excited about The Cycle, Jordan has crafted such an original story that is gonna excite audiences. For us he has the ability to be the next great genre film maker and we can wait to make the movie,” said James Harris of Tea Shop. 

Woll is repped by Luber Roklin Entertainment.
