Nell Tiger Free has boarded another hair-raising project. Deadline reports that the “Servant” actress, who plays a creepy nanny on the Apple TV+ psychological thriller, has booked “her first leading role in a major studio film”: she’ll topline a prequel to “The Omen.” Titled “First Omen,” the 20th Century project will mark Arkasha Stevenson’s feature directorial debut.
No word on plot details about the film . The original 1976 “Omen” led to two sequels and a 2006 reboot.
“Game of Thrones” and “Too Old to Die Young” are among Free’s other credits. She reprises her role of Leanne in the fourth and final season of “Servant,” set to premiere next year.
Stevenson’s TV credits include “Legion” and “Brand New Cherry Flavor.”
