Jonas Cuaron (“Desert”) has been tapped to direct an untitled chupacabra-themed feature film at Netflix and 26th Street Pictures.
The story follows a teenager, who while visiting his family in Mexico, gains an unlikely companion when he discovers a young chupacabra hiding in his grandpa’s shed.
In order to save the mythical creature, Alex and his cousins must embark on the adventure of a lifetime. Cuaron will write a new draft based on an original script by Marcus Rinehart, Sean Kennedy Moore and Joe Barnathan.
Chris Columbus, Michael Barnathan and Mark Radcliffe will produce.
