EXCLUSIVE: Gary Dauberman‘s Coin Operated is developing He Never Dies, a new horror film to be written by David Yarovesky (Locked, Brightburn), who will also direct.
In He Never Dies, the man they killed keeps coming back. Bigger. Stronger. Less human. No matter what they do…HE. NEVER. DIES.

Behind some of the biggest horror franchises of the past decade, including It, Annabelle and The Nun, Dauberman most recently teamed with Maniscalco to produce Until Dawn, a feature adaptation of the PlayStation game directed by David Sandberg. Other project on the development slate of his Coin Operated include Urban Legend, a modern reboot of Screen Gems’ 1990s slasher with Shanrah Wakefield set to write the script, and Ushers, based on Joe Hill’s short story for Screen Gems, which Zak Olkewicz is adapting.
