Washington DC, March 12 -- Filmmaker Christopher Landon, known for his work on the 'Happy Death Day' and 'Freaky', is set to write and direct a new supernatural horror film, 'Final Boarding', for Sony Pictures' Screen Gems.

The project is based on a short story by Clarence Hammond, according to Deadline.

Plot details for the upcoming film are currently under wraps. Landon will adapt both Hammond's short story and a previous script by Javier Gullon, whose involvement was first reported last February. Hammond is attached to produce the film.

Landon recently gained acclaim for Drop, a mystery thriller starring Meghann Fahy and Brandon Sklenar, produced by Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes for Universal and released in April last year.
