Kyle Gallner Joins Brie Larson In ‘Skeletons’ From Sony Pictures And Director JT Mollner

Kyle Gallner has officially joined Brie Larson in Sony Pictures’ upcoming horror feature “Skeletons,” directed by JT Mollner and produced by J.J. Abrams.

The film is described as a contemporary creature horror story centered on a young boy who gradually uncovers a terrifying secret about his family — specifically the true nature of his mother. The screenplay was written by Brian Duffield and is based on a short story by Philip Fracassi, with additional revisions by Mollner.

Sony Pictures secured worldwide distribution rights to the project during this year’s European Film Market.

“Skeletons” is being produced through FilmNation Entertainment’s Infrared label alongside J.J. Abrams’ Bad Robot Productions and Assemble Media.

The producing team includes Drew Simon, J.J. Abrams, Jon Cohen, and Jack Heller. Executive producers include Caitlin de Lisser-Ellen, Brian Duffield, Roy Lee, Steven Schneider, Brie Larson, and Philip Fracassi. Infrared is financing the film.

The project marks a reunion between Gallner and Mollner following their collaboration on “Strange Darling,” which earned praise for Gallner’s performance.

Gallner’s recent credits include “Carolina Caroline,” “Smile,” “Smile 2,” “The Passenger,” and “Dinner In America.”

Gallner is represented by Paradigm, Range Media Partners, and Hansen, Jacobson.
