Atomic Monster and Blumhouse are teaming up with Behaviour Interactive to develop a Dead by Daylight movie.

James Wan, Jason Blum and Stephen Mulrooney will work as producers on the movie. What’s more, Behaviour Interactive’s Rémi Racine; Atomic Monster’s Michael Clear and Judson Scott; Blumhouse’s Ryan Turek, and Striker Entertainment’s Russell Binder are executive producers.

We couldn’t be more thrilled to work with Jason Blum and James Wan, two giants of the horror film industry, to further expand the Dead by Daylight universe,” said Stephen Mulrooney, Executive Vice President at Behaviour Interactive. 

He continued: “At Behaviour, our motto is to create unique moments, together, forever. Atomic Monster and Blumhouse are the ideal partners to craft Dead by Daylight’s killer entrance onto the big screen.

Atomic Monster Founder and CEO James Wan added, “In Dead by Daylight the Behaviour team has created a love letter to the world of horror, building an incredible environment teeming with atmosphere and terrifying villains — perfect for a scary cinematic adaptation. 

We’re big fans of the game at Atomic Monster, and are thrilled to be teaming up with Blumhouse to bring this frighteningly visceral world to the big screen.

At the time of writing, a director and screenwriter are yet to be appointed. Furthermore, as the movie is in very early production, we do not have a release window either.

What are your thoughts on Dead by Daylight getting a movie adaptation? Personally, I’m hoping it will be 80s/90s slasher horror inspired. Let us know your thoughts across our social media channels.
