Isabelle Fuhrman is set to play the lead in director David Gordon Green’s remake of Dario Argento’s gaillo classic Suspiria.
Last seen on the big screen in the supporting role of Clove in The Hunger Games, Fuhrman has also headlined the horror film The Orphan.
In the original 1977 film, Jessica Harper played a dancer who is accepted into a prestigious German ballet academy only to find that it is run by a coven of witches. Hilarity ensues. That is, if your definition of hilarity is sheer terror.
Green has been jonesing to remake the film for some time and only recently has gotten the financing to get things moving.
