The film will be a darkly comedic examination of violence and greed that centers around an eclectic gathering of residents in a small Alaskan town as they attempt to cover up a murder. Bacon has most recently directed episodes of The Closer and City On A Hill, and his last film feature as director was Loverboy. Vukadinovich has got a lot on his plate right now. Among other projects, he’s adapting the Ray Bradbury fantasy novel From The Dust Returned for Netflix and writing Cupid for Mythos Studios — with Justin Bieber attached to play the titular cherub — and Beetlejuice 2 for Warner Brothers with an original script for James Wan who will direct and produce. He is also writing the script for The Wanderling for 20th Century Studios and director Stephen Daldry and The Phantom Tollbooth for TriStar. Vukadinovich most recently worked as a supervising producer of Kidding, a series from director Michel Gondry, starring Jim Carrey. Bacon is represented by MGMT and attorney Fred Gaines; Vukadinovich is repped by Verve, Industry Entertainment and attorney Rob Goldman. AGC Studios is producing and financing the film.
