The Secret Is Coming To The Screen

Dark Horse Entertainment has announced the next picture to come out of its production pact with Universal Pictures: The Secret, an adaptation of 2007's critically acclaimed graphic novel and comic series. Scott Milam, who wrote the forthcoming remake of the horror classic Mother's Day, has been signed to write this adaptation.

The Secret tells of a group of high-school seniors who play a silly prank, only to see it backfire when one of their friends vanishes without a trace. Mike Richardson, president and founder of Dark Horse, and writer of the comic on which the film is based, will produce for Dark Horse Entertainment alongside Scott Stuber, who will produce for Stuber Productions.

“Scott is a terrific writer and we're excited to be working with him on this project,” said Richardson. “The story is full of scares and surprises and goes places no one will expect.”
