It looks like Malignant writers James Wan and Akela Cooper have reunited to give us M3gan, the story of a robot that may be more than she appears. When a young girl (Violet McGraw, Doctor Sleep) loses her parents, she moves in with her aunt Gemma (Allison Williams, Get Out), who introduces her to M3gan, her latest project. When Gemma assigns M3gan to protect her niece, it looks like things are going to escalate a bit.

Gerard Johnstone (The New Legends of Monkey) is handling the direction for M3gan. Wan is producing with Jason Blum (Blumhouse Productions), and Allison Williams is an Executive Producer.

M3gan is due to hit theatres this coming January.
