Rob Lowe, Crispin Glover and Roselyn Sanchez Horror ‘The Third Parent’ Boarded by HanWay, Sales Launching in Cannes (EXCLUSIVE)

Sales on the film — based on the popular creepypasta series and already acquired by Bleecker St for North America — will launch in Cannes

HanWay Films has boarded “The Third Parent,” the upcoming horror starring Rob Lowe(“The West Wing,” St. Elmo’s Fire”) alongside Crispin Glover(“Back to the Future,” “River’s Edge”), and Roselyn Sanchez(“Fantasy Island,” “Rush Hour 2”), and will launch international sales in Cannes. Initially this twisted game provokes pure panic and a chaotic fight for survival, but as Tommy exerts extreme mental and physical pressure on the family through increasingly violent acts of subjugation, they learn to work as a unit to rid their lives once and for all of this monstrous invader. Heads of department attached include Jérôme Eltabet as editor (“The Substance,” “Revenge”); Tim Maurice-Jones as cinematographer (“Speak No Evil,” “Woman in Black,” “Kick Ass,” “Snatch”); Evan Webber as production designer (“Shape of Water,” “Handmaid’s Tale,” “Pan’s Labyrinth”) and Butch Vig, who has worked with Nirvana, Foo Fighters and Garbage, as composer.
