Nicolas Winding Refn is moving forward on his crazy new spy movie The Avenging Silence, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have any other projects in the works.
Maniac Cop doesn’t have a set release date yet, but casting is currently underway.
The movie is set in the modern day, and follows a police officer who is determined to track down one of her colleagues, who has embarked on a brutal murder spree.
Lene Borglum, Refn’s producing partner with Space Rocket Nation, told Variety that the movie won’t be “a pure horror film,” but a contemporary take on the material with an action-thriller lean.
