Not a silent night or holy night, but a “Violent Night.” “Stranger Things” actor David Harbour is set to star in a new action film with a holiday spin from the producers of “John Wick.”
“Violent Night” is set at Universal, and the studio has dated the film for a release on Dec. 2, 2022.
Tommy Wirkola (“Dead Snow” franchise) is directing “Violent Night,” which is described only as a “coal-dark holiday thriller that says you should always bet on red.” Pat Casey and Josh Miller, the writers of “Sonic the Hedgehog,” wrote the original screenplay.
87North’s David Leitch and Kelly McCormick, who are behind “John Wick,” “Deadpool 2,” “Atomic Blonde,” “Hobbs & Shaw” and this year’s “Nobody” with Bob Odenkirk, are producing “Violent Night.”
