Author and filmmaker Owen Egerton is set to direct his debut feature FOLLOW, and he's tapped DEADGIRL and LOOPER actor Noah Segan to topline.
Egerton took to Facebook to share the news, writing…
“Happy to announce that this spring I’ll be directing my first feature film – FOLLOW. Follow is a psychological horror set in Austin. I wrote the script based on two stories from my collection How Best to Avoid Dying. The cast includes Noah Segan, Don Most, and Southern Longoria. I’m teaming up with producers Seth Caplan, Chris Colbert and executive producer Tim League. Thanks for all the enthusiasm!”
While there's no word yet on which stories from "How Best to Avoid Dying" will make it into FOLLOW, the source material has the following description:
“In this devilishly clever collection of short fiction, renowned humorist Owen Egerton leads us on a wildly surprising, darkly comic, and often heart-wrenching ride into the terrible beauty of life’s end. With razor wit and compassionate insight, Egerton has a crafted a work that brilliantly explores the pain and wonders of life knowing that with the turn of any corner death could be panhandling for your soul.”
