Model-turned-actress Riley Keough is set to star in director Jim Mickle’s (Stake Land) We Are What We Are, a remake of the Mexican cannibalism frightener Somos Lo Que Hay. Set in New York’s Catskills, production begins on May 29.

We Are What We Are is the story of two sisters (Keough, Julia Garner) forced by their father (Bill Sage) to partake in an ancient cannibalism ritual following the unexpected death of their mother. Wyatt Russell costars as a young deputy in love with Keough’s character.

Keough, who made her feature film debut in the rock biopic The Runaways, will next be seen in the lesbian werewolf drama Jack & Diane. The 22-year-old is also slated to appear in George Miller’s long-delayed Mad Max: Fury Road, the fourth installment in the beloved franchise.
