Netflix has won the rights to an adaptation of the short story I Am Not Alone, which has Jessica Chastain and Misha Green attached to star and direct respectively.

According to Deadline, the streamer won a contested auction to the short story by Chris Hicks. The story follows a mother of a young daughter whose life unravels when she suffers unbearable migraines that cause her to hallucinate as she begins to see creatures. Hicks has built a reputation for writing short horror stories on the NoSleep subreddit.

Producer Simon Kinberg told Deadline, “I’m a massive fan of Misha’s work, and been friends with Craig for years, so when I got sent this story and heard they were involved, I absolutely flipped out. Misha’s vision for it is unlike anything I’ve ever seen. And getting to work with Jessica again makes it even dreamer.”
