A vampire movie is in the works over at Netflix titled Smile, Deadline has announced today, which is being compared to, of all things, Nicolas Winding Refn’s brilliant film Drive.

Said to be “in the spirit” of Drive, William McGregor (“His Dark Materials”) will be directing Netflix’s Smile, which will be produced by Matt Reeves (The Batman).

Here’s the plot synopsis for this one: “Smile follows teenager Millie, whose life is turned upside-down when she’s bitten by a vampire while traveling to LA with her school.

“Wanting nothing more than to be human again, Millie learns she can reverse the process if she is able to kill the man who bit her before the next sunrise.”

Helen Kingston (The Flood) is writing the script with McGregor.

Matt Reeves is producing via 6th and Idaho.

On the subject of Netflix vampires, the Jamie Foxx-starring Day Shift is coming to the streamer this year. Foxx has been cast in the role of vampire-slayer for that Netflix Original.
