Regina Hall has committed to star in and produce Breitenbush, a horror comedy from writer/director Jim Strouse. Hall’s returning to a genre she knows well after starring in four Scary Movie installments.
Hall also starred in Strouse’s 2015 romantic comedy People Places Things.
“We’re thrilled to be announcing our latest Yale Entertainment project. Jim and Regina are at the top of the list of people who we’ve wanted to [collaborate] with, and this script is so unique and fun – we’re so excited to get this into production,” said Jordan Yale Levine and Jordan Beckerman, announcing Yale Entertainment has picked up rights to the film.
Hall and Tom Heller are producing through their Rh Negative Entertainment banner. Yale Entertainment’s Yale Levine and Beckerman are also on board as producers.
Yale Entertainment released this synopsis of the horror comedy:
“After her husband vanishes on a camping trip in which everyone ingests a powerful hallucinogen and summons an angry prehistoric creature, aspiring district attorney Kate (Hall) and her friends must return to the site of the ill-fated trip to face the forces that lead to his disappearance.”
Regina Hall’s recent credits include Honk for Jesus, Save Your Soul, Master, and Me Time. She also returned to the Best Man franchise for Peacock’s The Best Man: The Final Chapters.
Strouse is currently finishing up Love Again with Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Sam Heughan. Celine Dion is appearing in the film as herself as well as providing new music to the romantic comedy/drama.
