For roughly the last half decade, director David F. Sandberg kept busy in the DC Extended Universe by directing the Shazam! movies, with the first entry coming out in 2019 and Fury of the Gods following in 2023. However, the DCEU is now over, and many of the upcoming DC movies will reside in the new DC Universe shared continuity. Sandberg, on the other hand, will be retuning to his horror roots, as evidenced by the cool video game adaptation he’s signed on to helm.
Before working on Shazam!, Sandberg made a name for himself as the director of Lights Out and Annabelle: Creation, which some of you might consider to among the best horror movies of all time. Now THR has shared that his next spooky cinematic offering will be Until Dawn, based off the same-named PlayStation game released in 2015. Sandberg is also producing alongside IT screenwriter Gary Dauberman, who’s doing a pass on the Until Dawn script that Blair Butler previously wrote. Sandberg and Dauberman previously worked together on Annabelle: Creation.
