Halston Sage, who next appears in the upcoming Seth Rogen-Zac Efron comedy Neighbors, has nabbed roles in two buzzy, horror-adventure family films.
The actress will co-star in Sony’s Goosebumps, starring Jack Black. In the film, directed by Rob Letterman, Black stars as famed children’s horror writer R.L. Stine, whose monsters, it turns out, are actually real. When they escape from his books and attack an unsuspecting town, it’s up to Stine and two teens to get the monsters back into their stories.
Goosebumps, which comes from a screenplay by Darren Lemke and Mike White, is set for release on March 23, 2016. It’s produced by Neal H. Moritz through his Original Film banner and Deborah Forte of Scholastic Entertainment.
Sage has also nabbed the role of Kendall in Paramount’s Scouts vs. Zombies. Directed by Christopher Landon, the film follows three scouts who must save their town from a zombie outbreak. The screenplay from Landon is based on Lona Williams and Etan Cohen’s draft of an original script from Emi Mochizuki and Carrie Evans.
Also starring Tye Sheridan and Patrick Schwarzenegger, Scouts vs. Zombies is produced by Todd Garner, Andy Fickman, Betsy Sullenger and Bryan Brucks.
Sage, who is repped by CAA, ROAR and attorney Michael Schenkman, kicked off her career with Nickelodeon’s TV series How to Rock and has been building up a strong film slate over the past few years. She appeared in Sofia Coppola’s The Bling Ring, and comedy sequel Grown Ups 2, and will next appear as the girlfriend of Zac Efron’s frat boy character in the comedy Neighbors. She can currently be seen on the NBC series Crisis.

Congrats Halston!
Rising star Halston Sage is joining Christopher Landon’s horror/comedy SCOUTS VS. ZOMBIES. The film follows a Boy Scout troop that must use their skills to battle vicious zombies after their small town suddenly becomes infected. There’s no word yet on Sage’s role in the film but she’ll join Tye Sheridan, Patrick Schwarzenegger and “Anchorman” star David Koechner.
Even though she’s just starting out in Hollywood, she already has some impressive credits to her name. Sage started out with small roles in indie comedy “The First Time” and Columbia’s “Grown Ups 2″ before coming into her own in the upcoming Universal comedy “Neighbors” opposite Seth Rogan and Zac Efron. Sage will also star in the upcoming crime thriller “Poker Night” with “Breaking Bad’s” Giancarlo Esposito and “Sons of Anarchy’s” Ron Perlman.
Sage is repped by CAA and ROAR.

congrats to Halston! Can’t wait!
Back in May, Halston was filming a movie called “Townies”. According to the Hollywood Reporter, Universal has announced the project had been renamed. The movie, now titled “Neighbors” is a comedy starring Seth Rogen & Zac Efron and is set to hit theatres May 9th 2014.

Which Grown Ups 2 star is this curly-haired cutie?
It’s Halston Sage!
When Halston was a kid, she wanted to grow up to be a dentist (maybe because those braces gave her such a killer smile)! She got her start in acting on Nickelodeon, landing roles as a guest star on Victorious and then as a series regular on How to Rock. Now, she’s starring in a new television show, Crisis, coming to NBC this fall.
Playing Nancy in Grown Ups 2 isn’t Halston’s first movie role. She recently appeared in The Bling Ring alongside Emma Watson and stars in the upcoming film Townies, where she kisses Zac Efron! We hope her real life boyfriend, James Maslow of Big Time Rush, wasn’t jealous!
When she isn’t working, Halston likes to go horseback riding. (She says it’s her hidden talent!)
Grown Ups 2 hits theaters this Friday, July 12.
That same afternoon, Halston and her fellow Grown Ups 2 star David Henrie will be joining us in studio for a Live Couch Sesh at 2:30 p.m. PT to celebrate the release of the movie and answer your questions! Don’t miss it!
Here’s Halston today:
