Dario Argento Writing New Horror Movie and “Book of Black Fairytales”
Oh good, so Dracula 3D won’t be his last horror film.
As we noted last month, Dario Argento is working on a new horror movie that he’s been particularly coy about. All Argento really said at the time was that he was he developing “something new” that falls into the horror genre, and he expounded upon that in the tiniest bit in a new chat with the website Dark Universe. When they pressed for more details, Argento replied:
I’m writing a new film, along with an American writer. {It] should be shot in Canada, although it is not sure yet.
What else is Argento up to? He’s writing a book! The Italian master of horror told the site:
And, at the same time, I’m also writing a book of black fairy tales for adults.
We’re eager to hear more about both projects and we’ll let you know when we do.
In addition to Leigh Whannell’s upcoming Universal Monsters movie Wolf Man, Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel) has also joined the cast of Weapons, THR has announced tonight.
Weapons is the new horror movie from New Line Cinema and director Zach Cregger (Barbarian), with Julia Garner joining the previously announced Josh Brolin (Dune 2).
The upcoming Weapons is from writer/director Zach Cregger, who will also produce alongside his Barbarian producing team: Roy Lee of Vertigo and J.D. Lifshitz and Raphael Margules of BoulderLight Pictures. Vertigo’s Miri Yoon also produces.
The Hollywood Reporter teases, “Plot details for Weapons are being kept holstered but it is described as a multi and inter-related story horror epic that tonally is in the vein of Magnolia, the 1999 actor-crammed showcase from filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson.”
Cregger was a founding member and writer for the New York comedy troupe “The Whitest Kids U’Know,” which he started while attending The School of Visual Arts. The award-winning group’s self-titled sketch comedy show ran for five seasons on IFC-TV and Fuse. He was also a series regular on Jimmy Fallon’s NBC series “Guys with Kids” and the TBS hit series “Wrecked,” and was featured in a recurring role on the NBC series “About a Boy.”
Weapons will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures.
