Exclusive: In a competitive situation, MGM has secured feature rights to Minnie Schedeen’s short story Exoplanet. The Old Guard director Gina Prince-Bythewood is attached to helm, and Matt Tolmach and David Manpearl are attached to produce for Matt Tolmach Productions. Schedeen will adapt her short story for the screen.
The logline is being kept under wraps, but we hear it’s an elevated sci-fi thriller. The project reteams Tolmach with MGM, where he’s also beginning production on the horror feature Dark Harvest starring Casey Likes and E’myri Crutchfield and directed by David Slade. Deadline broke the news on that project.
“I am so thrilled to be reuniting again with Gina Prince-Bythewood. The opportunity to work with her on Love and Basketball was an incredible experience and to have a chance to work with her again is hugely exciting,” said Michael De Luca,...

Exclusive: New Line has brought on newcomer Minnie Schedeen to pen its feature adaptation of The Demon of Brownsville Road, the 2014 novel by Bob Cranmer and Erica Manfred. It chronicles the harrowing true story of one family’s battle against the evil that possessed their home and tormented their lives.
The Demon of Brownsville Road has been the subject of a number of docuseries, and at one point Fox was developing an adaptation of Cranmer’s book as a potential drama series before New Line landed the rights.
This project marks Schedeen’s first studio assignment. The graduate of USC’s School of Cinematic Arts, who has been supported by New York Stage & Film and the Sundance Institute, is preparing to direct her first feature, Farmhouse, based on the short of the same name, which was developed with the Sundance Feature Film Department and Creative Producing Summit. She is repped by Grandview and UTA.
