Sarah Paulson to star in Lionsgate's next thriller, 'Run'

The movie is about a woman, played by Sarah Paulson, who raises her daughter in complete isolation all through her life

Emmy winning actress Sarah Paulson has signed to star in Lionsgate Entertainment company's thriller movie 'Run', reported Variety. 

Paulson is currently working on Ryan Murphy's anthology series 'American Horror Story' and she will soon resume her career in films by playing a starring role in 'Run'. 



 

Aneesh Chaganty, the director of the movie 'Searching,' has co-written the movie alongside Sev Ohanian. Chaganty will also be directing this movie, which is about a teenage girl who has been raised in isolation by her mother (Paulson) her entire life. Her life starts to unravel as she finds about her mother's dark hidden secrets. 



 

The writer duo's previous work, 'Searching,' was a huge success grossing $65 million at the box office and received excellent reviews from critics and audiences for its all-round perfection of story and performances.

We know how difficult it is for movies to be acclaimed by the critics and the audiences at the same time, don't we? 

Paulson is the best known for playing many different roles in Murphy's anthology and for her Emmy winning performance in 'The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story.' 

She will next be seen in the post-apocalyptic horror film 'Bird Box' co-starring Sandra Bullock, which is set to be released on Netflix on Dec. 21, and horror-thriller 'Glass', the follow-up to the 2016 hit 'Split', which is a follow-up to the 2000 moderate hit 'Unbreakable', from M. Night Shyamalan, and which will hit theaters January 18.



 

Production on 'Run' begins on October 31.
