In The Black Phone, adapted by Derrickson and frequent collaborator C. Robert Cargill (Sinister), based on Joe Hill's short story:

Davies joins Mason Thames (For All Mankind) and Madeleine McGraw (Toy Story 4, Secrets of Sulphur Springs), who are set to also appear in the film.

Derrickson, Cargill and Jason Blum, for Blumhouse, are producing the film. Universal and Blumhouse will present the Crooked Highway production. Joe Hill is an executive producer.
