EXCLUSIVE: Corteon Moore (From), Chloe Avakian (John Wayne Gacy), and Carson MacCormac (Clown in a Cornfield) have joined the cast of This Is Not a Test, a horror-thriller based on the YA novel by New York Times bestselling author Courtney Summers, which is now in production in Canada.

Character details are under wraps. As previously announced, Olivia Holt, Froy Gutierrez, and Luke MacFarlane will also star.

Directed by Adam MacDonald, This Is Not a Test follows Sloane and four other students who take cover in Cortege High to escape a world plagued by the infected. As danger relentlessly pounds on the doors, Sloane begins to see the world through the eyes of people who actually want to live and takes matters into her own hands.

Best known for starring in the Russo Brothers-produced MGM+ series From, Moore will next be seen in a supporting role in the Amazon/A24 series Overcompensating from Benito Skinner. He is represented by Innovative Artists and Entertainment 360.

Previously, Avakian has recurred on Netflix’s Locke & Key and played a starring role in Canadian series Near or Far. Next to be seen in Peacock’s true-crime limited series John Wayne Gacy, she is repped by Luber Roklin and The Characters Talent Agency.

MacCormac had a supporting role in DC’s Shazam! films and will next be seen in the horror film Clown in a Cornfield from RLJE Films and Shudder, which is premiering at SXSW. He’s also been seen on Netflix’s Locke & Key and October Faction and is currently shooting a major recurring role in Season 2 of the streamer’s My Life with the Walter Boys. He is repped by Innovative Artists and OAZ.
