Kate Mara is set to star in the upcoming vampire romantic comedy She Kills Them, directed by Dan Clark. The film is described as a blend of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Fleabag, combining supernatural action with sharp, introspective humor.
In She Kills Them, Mara portrays Chloe Jacobs, a woman in her late 30s leading a double life. By night, she’s a vampire slayer working for a secret government agency, seducing and eliminating the undead. By day, she’s a jaded New Yorker navigating the complexities of modern life. Her worlds collide when she meets Eric, a man she genuinely connects with, forcing her to reconcile her dual identities.
Director Dan Clark envisions the film as a fresh take on the vampire genre, focusing on the challenges of adulthood and personal relationships, all while delivering thrilling action sequences.
She Kills Them joins a wave of innovative vampire films in development, such as Flesh of the Gods, starring Kristen Stewart and Oscar Isaac, and Robert Eggers’ Nosferatu remake. These projects indicate a resurgence of interest in vampire narratives, blending traditional horror elements with contemporary themes.
As She Kills Them progresses through development, audiences can anticipate a unique film that combines action, humor, and emotional depth, offering a fresh perspective on the vampire genre.
