MoviePass Films has greenlit the horror title The Reckoning which Neil Marshall, director of Lionsgate’s upcoming Hellboy, will helm. Marshall co-wrote the script alongside Edward Evers-Swindell and Charlotte Kirk, the latter who will star in The Reckoning and serve as EP. Production will begin on Jan. 15 in Wales.

A female-driven story, The Reckoning is set around the witch hunts and the great plague in England in 1665 and follows Evelyn Haverstock (Kirk), a young widow, haunted by the recent suicide of her husband Joseph, who is falsely accused of being a witch by her jealous Landlord, Squire Pendleton, after she rejects his unwanted advances.
