Chase Infiniti is stepping into the horror spotlight — and Lionsgate’s new horror flagship just got a lot more terrifying. The Golden Globe and Emmy nominee, fresh off her Oscar-winning breakout in One Battle After Another, has signed on to star in Portrait of God, a high-concept religious thriller from rising director Dylan Clark. The film, which Lionsgate has greenlit with Sam Raimi and Jordan Peele producing, marks the first time the two horror titans have teamed up. No plot details yet, but sources describe it as a bold new take on faith and fear, possibly even a spiritual descent disguised as a genre experiment. Clark, who made waves with a viral 2022 short of the same name, will direct his feature debut here after landing the Blair Witch reboot for Lionsgate and Blumhouse Atomic Monster. That project arrives next September, setting a tight timeline for Portrait of God. The studio’s confidence in Clark is clear: he was once set up at Universal, but when that fell through, Lionsgate swooped in. Now, with Fogelson calling him ‘one of the most exciting emerging voices in horror,’ the stakes are high. Raimi and Peele aren’t just names on a poster. They’re backing a filmmaker who started on YouTube, not a studio lot. And Infiniti? She’s trading prestige drama for something darker. Her follow-up, The Julia Set, premiered at TIFF and is still seeking a buyer. This move suggests she’s not just chasing awards, she’s chasing impact. The real question isn’t whether this film will scare people. It’s whether it’ll change what horror can be. Production is expected to begin early next year.
