Movie will be namedSuper Mario World, in reference to 1990 SNES classic, however mentions of the movie title were scrubbed hours after publication, so make of that what you will.

By night, she seduces and slays vampires as part of a secret government operation. By day, she’s just another jaded New Yorker trying to figure out her personal life. But when she meets Eric–someone she actually connects with–her two worlds collide.”
Flesh of the Gods
Speaking of vampires, Deadline reports Elizabeth Olsen will star alongside Kristen Stewart and Oscar Isaac in Flesh of the Gods, an 80s-set vampire drama taking place in a “glamorous, surrealistic world of hedonism, thrills and violence.” Directed by Panos Cosmatos (Mandy), the story concerns Raoul and Alex, “a married couple in glittering ’80s L.A. who descend each evening from their luxury skyscraper condo and head into an electric nighttime realm. When they cross paths with the mysterious and enigmatic Nameless (Elizabeth Olsen) and her hard-partying cabal, Raoul and Alex are seduced into a glamorous, surrealistic world of hedonism, thrills and violence.”
