“Gotham” and “Shameless” actor Cameron Monaghan is set to star in Jahmil Qubeka’s supernatural thriller “The White Devil” for Roberi Media and Spier Films.
The story follows a young American high school senior who hopes to put his past behind him when he is enrolled by his father into a prestigious British boys academy.
Soon he learns that the school has a past as well – one haunted by a vengeful former student who quickly forms an unhealthy attachment to him.
Qubeka and Julian Paul Stein co-wrote the script for this adaptation of Justin Evans’ 2011 novel. Robert L. Stein and Michael Auret will produce and filming begins in Cape Town in the Spring.
