Never lose hope.

The stars are aligning for Hope–a new Korean horror thriller from Plus M Entertainment–as the feature prepares to start filming later this year, according to a report on Deadline. No release window has been announced.

Taylor Russell (Bones and All) this week joined Hoyeon (Squid Game), Michael Fassbender (Steve Jobs) and Alicia Vikander (Tomb Raider) in the film’s cast.

The movie–from director Na Hong-jin (The Wailing)–follows the residents of Hopo Port, “where a mysterious discovery is made on the outskirts of the remote harbor town,” according to the synopsis.

Before too long, the residents “find themselves in a desperate fight for survival against something they have never encountered before.”
