Emma Roberts to Headline New Horror Flick 'A Body In The Woods' from 'Longlegs' Producer Dave Caplan; Marks Debut for Sales Firm Manifest Pictures

Emma Roberts, a prominent figure in modern horror, is set to star in the upcoming film 'A Body In The Woods'. The project is produced by Dave Caplan, known for his work on 'Longlegs' and 'The Monkey', and represents the first film to be launched by the new U.S. sales company Manifest Pictures, led by Yvette Zhuang and Zach Glueck. The announcement was made at the European Film Market (EFM), where pre-sales for the film are underway. Roberts' extensive experience in the genre, particularly her memorable roles in 'American Horror Story', has cemented her status as a go-to star for terrifying narratives. 'A Body In The Woods' aims to leverage this appeal, alongside Caplan's reputation for delivering sophisticated and unsettling horror, to make a significant impact in the global market. The film's debut at EFM highlights Manifest Pictures' ambitious entry into film sales, seeking international distribution for what is anticipated to be a compelling addition to the horror genre.
