Kristen Stewart (“Crimes of The Future”) and Oscar Isaac (“Ex Machina”) are set to play a married couple in “Flesh of The Gods,” a new vampire genre flick from “Mandy” director Panos Cosmatos. The news hails from the Hollywood Reporter, and while the pairing of the two leads is impressive on its own, the script hails from Andrew Kevin Walker, who has genre film credits that include “Se7en,” “8MM,” and David Fincher’s latest film “The Killer.” Walker worked off a story from Cosmatos, and there is hope that production could begin later this year.

This will be one of the many films heading to the Cannes Film Market, with CAA/WME handling domestic rights sales and XYZ Films overseeing the international side of sales. Cosmatos previously worked with XYZ on his Nicolas Cage-led psychedelic revenge film, “Mandy.”

“Flesh of The Gods” is a vampire movie set during the 1980s in Los Angeles, California. In the report, producers provided the logline, and it reads:

“Follows a married couple, Raoul (Isaac) and Alex (Stewart), who descend each evening from their luxury skyscraper condo and head into an electric nighttime realm of 80’s LA. When they cross paths with the mysterious and enigmatic woman and her hard-partying cabal, Raoul and Alex are seduced into a glamorous, surrealistic world of hedonism, thrills, and violence.

Sounds a bit like “Flesh of The Gods” could be taking a page from Tony Scott’s sexy vampire thriller “The Hunger.”

Adam McKay (“Vice”) is part of the producing team, which also consists of Betsy Koch via the duo’s Hyperobject Industries production company and Isaac’s banner, Mad Gene Media.

Panos, you might remember, directed a wild, mind-melting episode of “Guillermo del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities” called “The Viewing.” Stewart recently starred in A24’s period thriller “Love Lives Bleeding,” and Isaac has been playing Dr. Victor Frankenstein in del Toro’s spin on Mary Shelly’s “Frankenstein,” with production expected to be completed by mid-June.
