‘Raw’ Director Julia Ducournau’s New Film ‘Titane’ Acquired by Neon
French filmmaker Julia Ducournau made her solo feature debut a couple years back with the critically acclaimed cannibal film Raw, and today we’ve learned that her next film is titled Titane. At this time, plot details are so under wraps that we can’t even be sure whether or not the film is a horror movie, but we figured you’d want it put onto your radar either way.
Deadline reports that Titane has been acquired by Neon, who will release it in North America.
“Raw was one of the most earth-shattering debut films in recent memory,” Neon said in a statement, “and we’ve been waiting for Julia’s next film ever since.” Same, Neon. Same.
Titane is produced by Jean Christophe Reymond.
Chris Columbus (Gremlins – writer, Home Alone – director) is headed back into the director’s chair for Thursday Murder Club, Amblin’s upcoming feature film adaptation of the same-titled novel written by Richard Osman. Variety first reported the news this morning.
It’s not a horror movie, mind you, but rather a star-studded murder-mystery. Think Rian Johnson’s Knives Out… only this particular murder-mystery is set in a retirement community!
Variety details, “The book, released in 2020, tells the story of four septuagenarian friends who live in a retirement community and solve cold cases for fun. When a shady property developer is found dead, the four find themselves in the middle of their first live crime.”
Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan and Ben Kingsley are “being eyed” to lead the cast!
Richard Osman’s 2020 novel was such a hit that it launched a franchise. Follow-up The Man Who Died Twice followed in 2021, with The Bullet That Missed coming along in 2022. And then there was The Last Devil to Die in 2023, with a fifth book in the series expected in 2025.
