Horror movie fans, get ready to be spooked! Screen Gems have announced that they’ve acquired the rights to the upcoming horror novel, The Rule of Three by Sam Ripley (which may or may not be a pseudonym for some fancy author who’s sold millions of copies).
But fear not, because the producing team behind the sleeper hit, Smile (which made over $215 million worldwide and has a sequel in the works) is taking the helm. Temple Hill’s Marty Bowen and Wyck Godfrey will produce the film and are searching for writers to bring this spine-chilling tale to the big screen.
So what’s The Rule of Three all about? The title comes from a haunting poem: “Don’t forget The Rule of Three/It’s coming for you/As it came for me.” The story follows three women trying to escape a curse called the Rule of Three, which seems natural and is killing people off left and right. But as they try to break the curse, they realize that they might not even be in danger, or are they?
As someone who loves a good horror flick, I’m excited to see what Temple Hill and Screen Gems will do with this story. Who doesn’t love a good urban myth turned deadly curse? Plus, with the success of Smile under their belts, I am confident that Bowen and Godfrey know what they’re doing.
I’m also curious about who this mysterious Sam Ripley is. The fact that they’re not revealing the author’s identity makes me even more intrigued. Could it be a famous author trying their hand at a new genre? Or is it someone completely new to the writing world? Only time will tell, but I’m excited to find out.
Overall, The Rule of Three has all the ingredients for a terrifyingly good time. I can’t wait to see who they’ll cast in the lead roles and how they’ll bring this creepy story to life. Until then, I’ll be checking under my bed and sleeping with the lights on, just in case.
