Depending on attendance, this could be the boost the studio needs to get audiences interested in their creature IPs once more and to get more films made based on them. A House on the Bayou is slated to premiere on Epix in the latter part of 2021. There is no definite word on what films will follow in this series between Blumhouse and the premium network. A House on the Bayou, the first in an eight-film venture between Epix and Blumhouse, has officially begun production in New Orleans. While returning, the officer showed a go-pro camera on which Issac had recorded himself.

We had the absolute pleasure of speaking to Angela about her role as Jessica Chambers in A House on the Bayou, the first of eight films developed and produced by Blumhouse Television for Epix. Directed and written by Alex McAulay, the film also stars Paul Schneider, Jacob Lofland, Doug Van Liew, Rhonda Johnson Dents and Lauren Richards. That’s nothing new for Sarafyan, who has rightfully made a name for herself in the realms of film and television since the early 2000s.

So in this story, I thought that some of the things that occur are a manifestation of her subconscious mind. I’m not going to give too much away, but she says that she wants to keep her family together. Maybe she does keep her family together – I don’t want to give it all away. But when it came to moments where I was doing violent things, it is fun, because it’s not real. Jessica “Jess” Chambers confronts her husband John over an affair. John agrees to end the relationship with Vivienne, and to not tell anything about it to their daughter, Anna.

But the complicated dynamic is pushed even further when a mysterious duo insert themselves into the family’s lives, threatening to unveil truly dark secrets within them all. In A HOUSE ON THE BAYOU, Jessica (Angela Sarafyan), a realtor, has just discovered that her husband John (Paul Schneider), a creative writing teacher, is having an affair with one of his students. As John expresses remorse and a willingness to fix their marriage, Jessica decides to travel with John and their 14-year-old daughter Anna to a dream home in rural Louisiana that Jessica is trying to sell.

However, Issac quickly turns up at the door and invites Jessica for a veal cutlet dinner at his house. As soon as Jessica finds out about veal availability in the store, she accuses John of lying to her again and trying to control her. The couple ends up fighting when Issac and his grandfather turn up at the house as uninvited guests and further fuel the couple’s already troubled relationship. In "A House on the Bayou," Schneider and Sarafyan will reportedly portray a couple whose marriage is very much on the rocks (via Deadline). In hopes of re-kindling the spark, the duo set out with their teenage daughter (McHugh) on a much-needed vacation, renting a cozy little house on the Louisiana bayou. As often happens in such stories, their vacation is upended by the unexpected arrival of visitors who not only unsettle the family's relative peace and quiet, but also the fragile sense of unity they'd been desperately clinging to.

The Magic Kingdom attraction was initially expected in late 2024 but has since been bumped up to arriving in the summer months. And for those regular ticketed guests that will be rope-dropping Disney World’s most popular park to get a ride on the Bayou–they likely won’t be the first onboard. Nevertheless, after shooting Issac, Jessica left with Anna in a car.

John Chambers, a creative writing professor, comes home and faces his furious wife, Jessica. She finds out about her husband’s ongoing affair with his student, Vivienne Ballard. When John tries to defend himself, Jessica shows him some photos to back up her claim. However, despite John’s adultery, Jessica wants to give him a second chance for the sake of their preteen daughter, Anna. She wants to save the family and thus proposes a family vacation to a house on the bayou near Louisiana Bay. The film was first announced back in April (per Deadline), with Blumhouse and producing partner Epix eyeing a late 2021 launch.

At the time of this writing, there has been no official release date announcement for "A House on the Bayou," but it appears that targeting the end of this year is still very much a part of the plan. As it is, "A House on the Bayou" is the first in a series of straight-to-service projects Blumhouse is set to deliver to Epix per a recently inked production deal. Yes, that means the new film will indeed make its debut on the premium cable channel when the day comes. The film is written and directed by Alex McAulay (Don’t Tell a Soul).

Shortly after arriving, John and Anna pick up a few things at the country store, where Anna meets Isaac, a flirtatious 18-year-old local, and John meets Grandpappy, who works behind the counter and writes "You are being watched by the devil" on John's receipt. Unnerved, John drives Anna back to the house, where, shortly after, Isaac shows up and invites John, Jessica, and Anna to dinner at their house. Created in 2005, what started as a tiny central Florida-based website and short weekly podcast that allowed our audience to visit Walt Disney World virtually has grown into the publishing company it is today.

But despite massive efforts, the film fails to make an impact. Topping off all the cliches inherent in the urban/rural horror movie divide, there's an undercurrent of Louisiana cliches that have been done to death in a wide array of media, including film, music, and cooking shows. It seems that nearly anything set in The Pelican State must have someone speaking in an awed whisper about how mystically magical it is, due to French or Haitian ties, cayenne pepper, the Mississippi River, something.

He agrees to go on vacation with Jess and Anna to help mend their family. The family of Leah Chase, who passed away in 2019 at the age of 96, has been heavily involved in developing the Tiana ride.
