Fox has secured the North American rights to distribute S. Darko , the upcoming sequel to the grossly-overrated 2001 cult favorite Donnie Darko .  Daviegh Chase will reprise her role as Donnie’s younger sister, who is now 18, and on a roadtrip with her friend when she becomes ‘plauged by bizarre visions’.  Chris Fisher, who previously directed the critically-acclaimed Nightstalker and the beloved classic, Rampage: The Hillside Strangler Murders , will helm. Donnie Darko director Richard Kelly is not involved in the production of the sequel.  The film’s budget is set at $10 million and will begin filming May 18.
