Jessica Alba (Sin City) is set to join Thomas Jane (The Punisher) in Blumhouse Productions’ The Veil. THR reports that the Phil Joanou-directed frightener starts production in April, and will be distributed by Universal Pictures.
Written by Robert Ben Garant, the scribe behind Blumhouse’s yet-to-be released white-knuckle horror show Jessabelle, The Veil follows the lone survivor of a believed mass cult suicide as she takes a documentary filmmaker (Alba) and her crew to the compound where it all went down.
Alba is coming off the Robert Rodriguez sequel Machete Kills and will be seen in Rodriguez’s Sin City sequel A Dame to Kill For and in The Wright Girls, Japanese director Yukihiko Tsutsumi’s remake of his own bad roommate thriller 2LDK.
Your first kiss. Your first job promotion. Your first born. None of these things will be as memorable as watching Zombeavers. Written and directed by “The Man Show” scribe Jordan Rubin, the outrageous creature-feature finds a bevy of bikini-clad babes terrorized by undead beavers while on holiday.
The synopsis reads:
Three college girls go on a care-free vacation of drinking games, topless sunbathing, and sexual exploration. Their frolicking fun comes to an abrupt end when toxic zombie beavers try to EAT THEM!
Zombeavers stars up-and-coming stunners Cortney Palm (Silent Night), Rachel Melvin (“Days of Our Lives”), and Lexi Atkins (pictured above).
Eva Longoria (“Desperate Housewives”) is the latest stunner to join Blumhouse Productions’ new micro-budgeted thriller Visions. Directed by Kevin Greutert (SAW 6) and written by Lucas Sussman (Below), the film is toplined by Isla Fisher (Wedding Crashers) and costars Gillian Jacobs (“Community”).
Fisher plays a pregnant woman who starts to have disturbing visions while with her husband at his vineyard home. Longoria is her big city friend, a fashionable and witty woman who disapproves of her life decisions. Universal Pictures is distributing.
Longoria is best known for being ridiculously hot and for playing sassy ex-model Gabrielle Solis on ABC’s “Desperate Housewives.” Horror creds include the Stephen Kay’s supernatural thriller The Dead Will Tell and the absolutely terrifying ghost comedy Over Her Dead Body.

Olivia Wilde is one hot mama in Frozen River cinematographer Reed Morano’s directorial debut Meadowland, a psychological thriller about a mother who strikes up a relationship with a neglected boy after her son goes missing. According to Deadline, that bond takes an “unexpected turn.”
No word if the “unexpected turn” involves any koo koo ka choo inappropriateness between Wilde and the kid, but that would be hot-as-balls creatively bold. The film, written by some dude named Chris Rossi, shoots in New York in July.
Wilde, best known for her performance in Tron: Legacy and her long-running role as Thirteen on Fox’s medical drama “House,” is coming off Spike Jones’ A.I. sci-fi romance Her. Previous creds include Andrew Niccol’s In Time and Jon Favreau’s Cowboys & Aliens.
