Not to be confused with Tobe Hooper’s film spelled with a D, Freestyle Releasing has just acquired U.S. theatrical rights to JINN, a supernatural thriller from Ajmal Zaheer Ahmad. No dates were given, but one is expected to hit in the coming weeks. So stay posted!
The amazing story of JINN involves ancient mythological creatures who have never been seen in U.S. cinemas before. The premise of the jinn concept, known to over 1 billion people around the world, involves supernatural entities and revolves around creation mythology: In the beginning, three were created; manmade of clay; angels made of light; and a third…made of fire. They are powerful due to their existence in a parallel world, and also because they have free will and can be both good and evil.
Say what now? That’s just crazy talk.
Ray Park (“Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace”), Faran Tahir (“Iron Man”, “Star Trek”), William Atherton (“Die Hard”, “Ghostbusters”), Serinda Swan (A & E’s “Breakout Kings”), and Dominic Rains (“Flight 93”) all appear in the flick.
Serinda Swan!
