The writer-director behind the recent hit The Strangers has been signed onto to Rogue Pictures, Universal's genre arm, though a sequel to his latest hit is not one of those mentioned as part of the deal. Variety reports that the deal will start with Black, a character-driven thriller with supernatural elements. The film will be produced by Michael Connolly under his Mad Hatter Entertainment.

Bertino will follow with Alone, a thriller Rogue had already been developing. Bertino will rewrite it with an eye to direct.

Separately, Bertino is writing the thriller Green Eyes for Paramount and producer Scott Rudin, who made a pitch deal with Bertino right after The Strangers sold to Focus.

I guess he's considered a hot commodity since the Strangers was such a huge success, especially comparing b.o. to budget. I enjoyed Strangers so I'm willing to pay to see what else he may have up his sleeve.
