Yann Demange, who directed the pilot of HBO’s boundary-pushing horror series Lovecraft Country, has come aboard to helm the vampire action thriller that still has Mahershala Ali attached to star.

Meanwhile, Michael Starrbury, who earned an Emmy nomination for penning an episode of Ava DuVernay’s drama, When They See Us, has been hired to pen a brand new script for the feature.

I liked the first episode of Lovecraft Country but I dropped it four episodes in. Hopefully they can get a workable script going on this project.

I liked them, they were like the old fights but didn't look super choreographed like a dance or some shyt. Gay azz 2000's dance fight choreography to me now is

They're okay, but they need something more fitting of a comic book movie I'm thinking

Without the free range to go hyper violent like R rated Deadpool idk, they need to compensate for the gore
