Blumhouse Productions and Universal Pictures have tapped Footloose and Rock of Ages star Julianne Hough to topline Skeleton Key director Iain Softley’s new road thriller Curve. Hough will play the victim of a murderous hitchhiker.

According to Variety, Hough’s character is a young bride-to-be trapped in her car after crashing it to escape the hitchhiker she foolishly picked up. No word if Hough breaks into song or dance.

Hough is an award-winning country singer and “Dancing with the Stars” champ whose first lead role was in 2011’s Footloose remake. Her last outing was in the 2012 movie adaptation of the hair-metal musical Rock of Ages.
