David F. Sandberg, known for directing the 2025 horror film "Until Dawn," will now take on the helm of Lionsgate's upcoming psychological horror movie, "Mommy's Home."

Morosini's script was described as "incredibly original" with "a distinctive voice" and "great characters." In addition to directing, Sandberg will produce the film alongside Lotta Losten and others, while Nathan Kahane, James Morosini, David Levine, Garrett Kemble, and Ryan Schwartz will serve as executive producers. Lionsgate's Scott O'Brien and Maria Ascanio are overseeing the project.
