‘Blind Owl’ Casts Armin Amiri and Katharine Isabelle as Psychological Horror Film Begins Production (EXCLUSIVE)


Armin Amiri and Katharine Isabelle are set to lead the cast of the psychological horror film "Blind Owl," which has started production in Canada.

Scream queen Isabelle has appeared in projects such as “Hannibal” and “Ginger Snaps” (and its two sequels), while Amiri, known for his roles in “And Just Like That,” “Factory Girl” and “The Wrestler,” also serves as executive producer through his company Supernova8 Films Productions. Necar Zadegan (“Mayor of Kingstown”), Mackenzie Grey (“Man of Steel”) and Sara Canning (“Vampire Diaries”) also star in the film adapted from Sadegh Hedayat’s 1937 novel “The Blind Owl,” considered a cornerstone of Persian literature and Iranian modernism. As his relationship with his newlywed wife deepens, the psychological scars and unresolved trauma he harbors from abandoning his Amish family for a modern life gradually surface, unraveling the complex layers of his inner turmoil.
