Kristen Stewart and Oscar Isaac Cast in New Vampire Thriller From “Mandy” Director

The director behind the 2018 film Mandy has set his sights on his next project: a vampire thriller titled Flesh of the Gods .

Set in the 1980s, Flesh of the Gods will follow Raoul and Alex, a married couple from LA who leave their life of luxury each night to adventure into - what Deadline calls - "an electric nighttime realm".

It is there they cross paths with the enigmatic "Nameless" and her hedonistic group, where the couple enter a surreal world of excess and violence.

Deadline revealed that Kristen Stewart and Oscar Isaac will join the cast as Raoul and Alex with Isaac also credited as a producer on the project alongside Gena Konstantinakos for Mad Gene Media.

Academy Award-winner Adam McKay and two-time Emmy-nominee Betsy Koch will produce under Hyperobject Industries.

Flesh of the Gods is penned by Andrew Kevin Walker, the writer behind David Fincher's Se7en and The Killer .

The film's director, Panos Cosmatos, told Deadline, "Like Los Angeles itself Flesh Of The Gods inhabits the liminal realm between fantasy and nightmare. Both propulsive and hypnotic, Flesh will take you on a hot rod joy ride deep into the glittering heart of hell".

Adam McKay said, "This director, this writer, these incredible actors, vampires, choice 80's punk, style and attitude for miles… that's the film we're bringing you today. We think it's wildly commercial and wildly artful. Our ambitions are to make a movie that ripples through popular culture, fashion, music, and film. Can you tell how excited I am?"

Further details and casting announcements about Flesh of the Gods are yet to be revealed.
