James Roday, the co-writer of the upcoming werewolf film SKINWALKERS spoke recently about the upcoming film.

"It's finished," Roday said. "It's in the can. And it's coming out in December. We're really pumped. We're really pumped about it. It's kind of a return to, like, basic human interaction storytelling in a genre package, which I feel like we haven't had in a really long time."

Regarding the rating, Roday said, "It's never completely in your control, but it was certainly written as a hard R, and it was shot as a hard R. So hopefully that's where it stays."

The film focuses on a 12-year-old boy in the middle of a battle between warring werewolf factions. Roday described it as a "epic, be-all-and-end-all of werewolf movies."

SKINWALKERS is eyeing a December release via Lionsgate.
