Jason Blum has made a name for himself as one of Hollywood’s most prolific horror producers, having recently worked on Get Out, Split, and The Purge.
The Independent recently caught up with Blum, who spoke about how financing horrors offers opportunities to work on Oscar-winning dramas, such as Whiplash.
The director’s Sundance flick Mudbound — starring Carey Mulligan, Jason Clarke, Jason Mitchell, and Mary J. Blige — was recently bought by Netflix for $12.5 million.
Speaking to The New York Times, the 48-year-old — who heads Blumhouse Productions — revealed one of his many upcoming projects; a horror, directed by Mudbound’s Dee Rees, about two black lesbians haunted by some unfamiliar force.
