David Dastmalchian and Ashley Greene Tackle Dark Sci-Fi Horror in ‘The Cure’

Deadline has revealed that David Dastmalchian and Ashley Greene are set to star in the upcoming sci-fi horror film ‘The Cure.’ Joining them in this eerie venture is newcomer Samantha Cochran.

Under the direction of Nancy Leopardi and penned by Jonathan Bernstein and James Greer, the team behind ‘Unsane,’ the movie promises a gripping narrative steeped in the frights of biotechnology.

‘The Cure’ centers on Ally Braun, a role taken by Cochran, who is an adopted 16-year-old suffering from a mysterious illness.

Her journey takes a dark turn when she discovers her biotech billionaire parents, portrayed by Dastmalchian and Greene, are exploiting her illness for their own sinister purposes.

Director Leopardi has described the movie as a satirical thriller that critiques the modern billionaire class through the lens of classic horror and sci-fi films.

She aligns ‘The Cure’ with influential titles like ‘Ex-Machina’ and ‘Videodrome,’ known for their commentary on technological and societal shifts.

The cast is rounded out with performances from Sydney Taylor, Tyler Lawrence Gray, and Dylan Flashner.

Produced by John Ierardi and Bo Youngblood alongside Indy Entertainment, Natalie Marciano, and Rock Jacobs of Rebel Entertainment, the film is gearing up to bring a fresh perspective to the horrors of science gone wrong.

Production on ‘The Cure’ has recently wrapped up, and more updates are expected soon.
