Bill Skarsgard and Eliza Scanlen Join Netflix's THE DEVIL ALL THE TIME

Bill Skarsgard and Eliza Scanlen have joined the case of Antonio Campos' adaptation of "The Devil All the Time."

Skarsgard and Scanlen join a cast that includes Tom Holland, Chris Evans, Mia Wasikowska, Robert Pattinson and Tony Award Winner Gabriel Ebert.

In a place called Knockemstiff, Ohio, a forgotten backwoods of this country - a storm of faith, violence and redemption brews. Out of desperation to save his dying wife, Willard Russell turns to prayer which succumbs to sacrifice. This sets our protagonist Arvin, Willard's son, on his path from bullied kid to a man who knows when to take action. The Devil All the Time is a finely woven "mid-western" gothic tale involving a nefarious cast of characters: a serial killer couple, a faith-testing preacher, and a corrupt local sheriff in a story that is told across two decades.

Campos is directing the film from a script he wrote with Paulo Campos. Jake Gyllenhaal and Riva Marker are producing through their Nine Stories banner along with Randall Poster and Max Born. Executive producing are Annie Marter and Jacob Jaffke.

Principal photography is set to begin on the film adaptation of Donald Ray Pollock's 2011 novel by the same name next month in Alabama.
