Jeremy Irvine and Hannah Emily Anderson will lead the sequel to the Silent Hill film, Return to Silent Hill.
Christophe Gans, the director of the 2006 Silent Hill film which starred Radha Mitchell and Sean Bean, will return to direct the sequel.
“Return to Silent Hill is a mythological love story about someone so deeply in love, they’re willing to go to hell to save someone,” director Christophe Gans said. “I’m delighted to have the wonderful talents of both Jeremy Irvine and Hannah Emily Anderson take us on this journey into a psychological horror world that I hope will both satisfy and surprise fans of Silent Hill.”
Silent Hill 2 is the second installment of Konami’s popular video game series.
Here’s a synopsis of the film:
The film follows James, a man broken after being separated from his one true love. When a mysterious letter calls him back to Silent Hill in search of her, he finds a once-recognizable town transformed by an unknown evil. As James descends deeper into the darkness, he encounters terrifying figures both familiar and new and begins to question his own sanity as he struggles to make sense of reality and hold on long enough to save his lost love.
Hannah Emily Anderson joined the X-Men universe alongside Sophie Turner as Elaine Grey in X-Men: Dark Phoenix.
Jeremy Irvine starred in the drama The Railway Man alongside Colin Firth and Nicole Kidman.
In October 2022, Konami announced three new games in the Silent Hill series were in production.
Jeremy Irvine was originally cast as Green Lantern, but the HBO Max Series was announced as being completely redeveloped last year.
