Nearly two weeks ago, veteran entertainment scooper Daniel Richtman reported on his Patreon page that Sony Pictures label Screen Gems was developing a live-action movie based on the psychological horror game "The Silent Curse" (Mouthwashing). Now, The Hollywood Reporter has exclusively revealed that the studio has assembled the film's team of writers, director and producers.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, "Doctor Strange" director Scott Derrickson will produce the adaptation, while "Jennifer's Body" and "Destroyer" filmmaker Karyn Kusama is set to direct. "Destroyer" screenwriting duo Matt Manfredi and Phil Hay will write the script.

Told through a nonlinear narrative, "The Silent Curse" follows five crew members stranded after their space freighter, the Tulpar, crashes into an asteroid. As supplies dwindle and isolation and paranoia take hold, fractures among the crew begin to surface.
