Alexandra Daddario (The White Lotus and Mayfair Witches) and John Cho (Star Trek, Searching) have signed on to star in the horror-thriller "Inground," which will be a hot genre package at the upcoming TIFF market.

The official logline for the film reads: “A recently divorced father attempts to reconnect with his young son by building a swimming pool in his backyard that they can both enjoy over the course of a long, hot summer. What begins as an exciting project turns into a terrifying nightmare.”
