Spec Script Deal: “If I Had Your Face”

Orion Pictures acquires horror spec script “If I Had Your Face” written by Ran Ran Wang. Via Deadline:

Orion has acquired If I Had Your Face, the 2023 Black List horror script written by Ran Ran Wang.

The official synopsis is under wraps, but the film is in the vein of Jordan Peele’s 2017 Oscar-winning horror debut Get Out, with two Asian female leads.

The script summary included from the 2023 Black List:

“When Jo’s best friend, Rina starts dating a white man, she begins transforming into something different: a white woman. Through it all, Jo can’t seem to convince anyone that there is cause for concern. But when three unidentifiable white women turn up dead, Jo realizes that they had all been Asian women who dated the same man, and now that he has Rina in his sights, it’s up to Jo to save her before she becomes his next victim.”

Wang is repped by Hopscotch Pictures.

By my count, this is the 12th spec script deal of 2024.

There were 7 spec script deals year-to-date in 2024.
