Middleditch And Dobrev Snag "The Final Girls" Gig

THR reports that Silicon Valley star Thomas Middleditch and The Vampire Diaries beauty Nina Dobrev have joined the horror comedy The Final Girls.


The story described as a mix between “Back to the Future” and “Friday the 13th,”centers on a girl (Taissa Farmiga) who, along with her friends, is mysteriously transported into the world of an iconic ’80s horror flick, which starred her recently deceased mother (Malin Akerman), a famous scream queen. The group must try to survive the movie and defeat its crazed killer.

Adam Devine and Alexander Ludwig also star.

Middleditch will play a film geek for whom landing in a classic horror flick is a dream come true, until it turns into a nightmare. Dobrev will play the alpha ex-best friend.

Ludwig will act as Farmiga’s love interest while Devine will be the movie-within-a-movie's appointed teen seducer.

Mark Fortin and Josh Miller wrote the screenplay from which  Todd Strauss-Schulson (A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas) will direct.

Michael London and Janice Williams are producing the pic.

Production is scheduled to begin next week in Louisiana.
