Emma Roberts, Kiernan Shipka to Star in February

Scream 4 and American Horror Story: Coven‘s Emma Roberts and Mad Men‘s Kiernan Shipka are set to star in the horror film February. The announcement was made by Highland Film Group today.

Written and directed by Osgood Perkins, the son of legendary Psycho actor Anthony Perkins, the film concerns beautiful and haunted Joan, a woman who makes a bloody and determined pilgrimage across a frozen landscape toward a prestigious all girls prep school where Rose and Kat find themselves stranded after their parents mysteriously fail to retrieve them for winter break.

As Joan gets closer, terrifying visions begin plaguing Kat while Rose watches in horror as she becomes possessed by an unseen evil force.

“We look forward to bringing Osgood’s tantalizing story to life while keeping audiences riveted with suspense,” said producers Bertino, Biddle and Paris. Highland Film Groups’ Arianne Fraser and Delphine Perrier added: “Having these two brilliant young actresses as a part of the team will no doubt translate with our buyers and audiences worldwide.”
