Brenton Thwaites (Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales) has signed on to star in the supernatural psychological thriller Ghosts of War, which is based on the original script by Eric Bress (The Butterfly Effect, The Final Destination), who will also direct.
Bress has established himself as a writer and director, with films such as Blunt, Final Destination 2, The Butterfly Effect, and The Final Destination, and the creator of the standout TV series Kyle XY.
Ghosts of War follows five battle-hardened American soldiers assigned to hold a French Chateau near the end of World War II.
Bress’ upcoming slate includes American Drifter and the reboot of The Butterfly Effect, which is slated to shoot later this year.
