When Universal asked us what Blumhouse’s take would be on Wolf Man, I knew that Leigh should be the captain. His unparalleled ability at extracting terror from relatable moments allows him to show horror that is not fantastical, but tactile and immediate.”In addition to directing and co-writing, Whannell (known for his work on Saw, Insidious, and, like Blum mentions above, the 2020 reimagining of The Invisible Man) also served as executive producer with Beatriz Sequeira and Mel Turner.
