Summer Coda director Richard Gray will direct U.S. psychological horror film Mine Games.
The story focuses on a group of friends that make a disturbing discovery in an abandoned mine while on holiday. As time loops back on itself, the friends realise that one of them will be responsible for the death of the others.
"I'm over the moon actually," Gray told IF via email. "I've been looking at this genre for a number of years and the Mine Games screenplay is really special."
The film is to be produced by Mark and Christine Holder of L.A based company Zero Gravity, alongside Mike Gillespie of Yellow Brick productions.
Zero Gravity is a literary and talent mangagement house and the producer of cult movie Malice in Wonderland.
Preproduction starts in June with the shoot to take place an hour out of Seattle in Washington.
Gray is a graduate of the Victorian College of the Arts. Summer Coda, which starred Rachael Taylor, Jacki Weaver and Alex Dimitriades, was his first feature.
