While it's now several years late for Max Spielberg to crank out Jaws 19 (as promised by Back To The Future Part II's 2015), one of his siblings is keeping the Spielberg directorial flag flying (you know, besides their father), as Destry Allyn Spielberg is on to make her feature directorial debut with horror movie Please Don't Feed The Children, which will star Michelle Dockery.

Written by Paul Bertino, the psychological thriller is set after a viral outbreak has ravaged the country’s adult population. A group of orphans heads south in search of a new life, only to find themselves at the mercy of a deranged woman harboring a dangerous secret.

“I am so grateful to have the opportunity to bring this story to the screen with such a collaborative and inspirational team. This picture is so much more than just a horror film. It’s a dream come true to work with a talent such as Michelle Dockery.”

And it wasn't even going to be her first film, but her planned debut, Four Assassins (And A Funeral) is still bubbling away in development. She's also been behind short film Let Me Go The Right Way, co-written with another successful creative type who has a famous parent, Owen King (yes, the son of Stephen).
