After a successful festival run with her indie Lucky (pictured above), filmmaker Natasha Kermani will next adapt and direct Abraham’s Boys, based on Joe Hill’s (“Locke & Key”) short story that acts as a follow-up to Bram Stoker’s Dracula, says Deadline.
“The plot follows Max and Rudy Van Helsing who know nothing of their father Abraham’s past, and cannot understand his overprotective attitude and strange behaviour.
“To make matters worse, Abraham Van Helsing is becoming increasingly more unhinged, paranoid, and violent.”
The site notes that “Kermani’s adaptation is set to explore the boys’ trauma through the eyes of a young Asian woman who is no stranger to death.”
“I’ve always loved Bram Stoker’s Dracula and was immediately drawn to Joe Hill’s unique and personal take on the legend of Van Helsing,” said Kermani. “Abraham’s Boys is an exciting opportunity to look at a familiar story through a new lens, and to explore classic characters and themes in a contemporary way.”
It hails from 47 Meters Down outfit Tea Shop Productions.
