Oh no. Adam Sandler tries a “thriller.”

Adam Sandler’s production shingle Happy Madison is taking a turn down a new road.

The company known for comedies has signed on to produce a genre project, a thriller titled “Shortcut,” as the inaugural picture of a nascent genre label it’s calling Scary Madison.

The movie centers on two brothers who come upon a rarely used shortcut in their new town — and soon discover the reasons why it’s so rarely used. Andrew Seeley, Shannon Woodward and Dave Franco will star.

“Shortcut” will be financed by Ingo Volkhammer’s hedge fund-backed Leomax Entertainment and co-produced by Leomax and Scary Madison. Volkhammer, Scary Madison’s Scott Sandler and Brian Witten and Leomax’s Scott Einbinder will produce; Adam Sandler and Scary Madison’s Jack Giarraputo will serve as exec producers. - From THR
