Tony Todd is one of those horror icons who makes every movie better just by being in it, and thankfully for us horror fans, Todd is always keeping incredibly busy within the genre.

One of the actor’s next projects, Rue Morgue reveals this week, is the sci-fi movie The Changed, an alien invasion film that looks to feature Todd as the villain at the center of it.

Clare Foley, Jason Alan Smith, Carlee Avers, Kathy Searle, Margaret Rose Champagne, Ryan Barry McCarthy, Doug Tompos and Dick Boland will also star in the film.

“Something has taken possession of the hearts and minds of the city’s population. At first, Mac [Smith], Kim [Foley] and Jane [Avers] try to convince themselves they’re wrong. They’re not. An alien intelligence has merged with their neighbor, Bill [Todd], setting into motion a desperate struggle for the survival of the human race.”

“Soon, the entire city is overwhelmed by the inhuman horror of the changed, but it won’t stop there! With merciless reason, Bill pushes Mac, Kim and Jane across every line imaginable to save themselves from the horde of changed gathering outside their suburban home.”

Michael Mongillo is directing a script he wrote with Matt Giannini.
