Mckenna Grace to star in 'Annabelle 3'

Child actor Mckenna Grace, best known for 'Gifted' and 'I, Tonya', is set to feature in the latest Conjuring spin-off, which serves as the third 'Annabelle' film.

The 12-year-old actor has been cast as Judy, daughter to Ed (Patrick Wilson) and Lorraine (Vera Farmiga) Warren, the

paranormal

investigators who starred in the main two Conjuring movies.

The currently untitled film will revolve around Judy and her teenage babysitters.

Gary Dauberman, who has penned both previous Annabelle films, will don the director's hat.

Production begins next month.
