‘Suspiria’ Remake Has Finished Filming; Headed to European Film Market
40 years ago today, Suspiria was released in Italy.
A remake of Dario Argento’s stylish Suspiria has long been an inevitability, but the good news here is that the modern day upgrade seems to be in very good hands. A genuine passion project for Italian director Luca Guadagnino, the upcoming remake boasts a strong cast led by Chloe Grace-Moretz, Tilda Swinton, Dakota Johnson, and Mia Goth, so let’s keep those hopes up… for now.
As reported by Deadline today, the Suspiria remake, which recently wrapped filming, is headed to next week’s European Film Market with FilmNation aboard for international sales. Amazon Studios nabbed the film last year for worldwide distribution, and also financed the production. The script was penned by David Kajganich, who adapted the original script.
In Suspiria:
A young American ballet dancer travels to a prestigious dance academy in Europe, only to discover it is something far more sinister and supernatural. She becomes increasingly terrified after a series of gruesome murders ensue and she slowly unravels the dark history of the academy.
Expect more soon.

Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.
Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things), Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.
The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).
Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.
Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.
Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.
In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
