The 26-year-old Brazilian American actress will star opposite Josie Totah and Dacre Montgomery in the “reimagining” of 1978 horror Faces of Death, which will begin filming this month.
The Legendary Entertainment update of John Alan Schwartz’s controversial but commercially successful film is being co-written by Isa Mazzei and Daniel Goldhaber and directed by Goldhaber.
The original, shown in a documentary-like style centers on pathologist Francis B. Gröss and includes a variety of footage showing gruesome ways of dying. Some of the most iconic scenes were faked, but it also included pre-existing video footage of real deaths or the aftermath of death.
Mazzei and Goldhaber previously said: “Faces Of Death was one of the first viral video tapes, and we are so lucky to be able to use it as a jumping off point for this exploration of cycles of violence and the way they perpetuate themselves online.”
Ferreira’s previous credits include television appearances on Divorce, Euphoria and The Afterparty, as well as the films Unpregnant and Nope.
