Also on the death list are The 100 star Richard Harmon, Gotham Knights actress Anna Lore and Owen Patrick Joyner, one of the stars of Netflix series Julie and the Phantoms.
Max Lloyd-Jones (The Book of Boba Fett), Rya Kihlstedt (Obi Wan Kenobi) and Tinpo Lee (The Manor) round out the rest of the cast.
The feature is being directed by Zach Lipovsky and Adam B. Stein, the duo behind Freaks. Spider-Man: No Way Home filmmaker Jon Watts and Dianne McGunigle (Cop Car) are producing alongside longtime Destination producers Craig Perry and Sheila Hanahan Taylor.
Plot details are being kept under lock and key, but a single core concept has driven the series: A character has a premonition of a horrific and deadly event, cheats his or her own death and saves several other lives in the process, only to have Death, personified as an invisible but unstoppable force, come for the survivors one by one. Guy Busick and Lori Evans Taylor wrote the script for this outting.
The first Final Destination, which starred Devon Sawa and Ali Larter, was released in 2000. It made $112 million worldwide on a $23 million budget. Four more installments followed through 2011, earning almost $700 million globally to date. Bloodlines will be the first installment since then.
The new entry will be released in 2025, timed to the 25th anniversary of the original.
Bassinger is repped by Paradigm, Industry Entertainment, and Work Management. Briones is repped by Innovative Artists, Piper Kaniecki Marks, Commercial Talent and All Star Appearances. Santa Juana is repped by Play Management and Yorn Levine.
