Allison Tolman, who co-starred in FX’s “Fargo” (pictured), and Emjay Anthony, the young actor who played Jon Favreau’s son in Chef, are in negotiations to board Krampus, Michael Dougherty’s Christmas horror story.
The project is a twisted horror comedy centering around a Santa Claus-like ancient entity who punished bad kids. Tolman and Anthony will play mother and son in a family that is under the demon’s attack. Anthony’s character is essentially the lead of the movie, as his is the one that has to step up to save the day.
Legendary Pictures is behind the movie, which Universal will release just in time for next year’s holidays, on December 4, 2015.
The film is being directed by Dougherty, who previously tackled the Halloween holiday with his anthology Trick ‘r Treat, and co-written by Dougherty, Todd Casey and Zach Shields.
