Margaret Qualley, Drew Starkey and Michael Shannon are set to star in Nichols’ next film, “King Snake,” with FilmNation Entertainment producing.

For context, last year’s “28 Years Later,” directed by Danny Boyle, pulled in $5.8M in previews during a standard three-day opening in June.

If Warner Bros. are really planning to go head-to-head with a potential juggernaut like “Avengers: Doomsday,” then I say: why not? Movie theaters desperately need another “Barbenheimer,” and this would surely do the trick.
