The Suicide Squad actor David Dastmalchian has just been tapped to star in the upcoming indie horror flick, Late Night with the Devil according to Variety. According to IMDB, he will be joining Australian actor Ian Bliss.

Late Night with the Devil will serve as the second collaborative project between Spooky Pictures and Image Nation Abu Dhabi after this year's Watcher, which was well-received by critics and audiences alike.
