Christopher Landon to Direct Feature Adaptation of Grady Hendrix’s ‘The Final Girl Support Group’

Christopher Landon to Direct Feature Adaptation of Grady Hendrix’s ‘The Final Girl Support Group’Big news this afternoon, as Deadline reports that Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, pictured above) has signed on to direct an adaptation of Grady Hendrix‘s novel, The Final Girl Support Group, for Paramount Pictures. The New York Times bestseller follows a support group for six “final girls” who have survived attacks from mass killers. It’s one of a recent group of transgressive novels to release over the last few years with stories that look at the aftermath of slashers and what it means to be a “final girl” in the real world. While I personally would’ve loved to see a woman take a crack at Final Girl Support Group, Landon has no shortage of excellent titles to his name. The outlet notes that The Final Girl Support Group was previously set up at HBO Max as a series with Andy and Barbara Muschietti producing in addition to Charlize Theron under her Denver and Delilah Films.
