Official Shot From M. Night Shyamalan’s ‘Old’ Gets Sappy
One of this year’s big Super Bowl spots to drop was the first look at M. Night Shyamalan‘s latest thriller, Old, in which a family rapidly ages on a mysterious beach. (Watch the teaser here.)
“This summer, Shyamalan unveils a chilling, mysterious new thriller about a family on a tropical holiday who discover that the secluded beach where they are relaxing for a few hours is somehow causing them to age rapidly … reducing their entire lives into a single day.”
While the footage already dropped, today we have a still, which is a sappy and sentimental look at the aforementioned family: (from left) Prisca (Vicky Krieps), Maddox (Thomasin McKenzie), Guy (Gael García Bernal) and Trent (Luca Faustino Rodriguez).
Shyamalan’s career has been on the “return to form” path for the past several years, returning to the horror genre back in 2015 with The Visit and going on to make a surprise sequel to Unbreakable with Split in 2016; which was of course followed by true sequel Glass in 2019, noted John Squires.
The film’s current theatrical date is July 23, 2021.
Here’s the trailer, if you haven’t seen it…

‘Flesh of the Gods’ – Kristen Stewart & Oscar Isaac Starring in ’80s Vampire Movie from Panos Cosmatos!
A hugely exciting new project from visionary director Panos Cosmatos (Mandy) has been announced by Variety, with Kristen Stewart and Oscar Isaac starring in Flesh of the Gods.
The cherry on top? Andrew Kevin Walker (Se7en, The Killer) wrote the screenplay!
Variety details the storyline, “Flesh of the Gods is set in glittering ’80s L.A., where married couple Raoul (Oscar Isaac) and Alex (Kristen Stewart) each evening descend from their luxury skyscraper condo and head into the city’s electric nighttime realm.
“When they cross paths with a mysterious and enigmatic figure known as Nameless and her hard-partying cabal, the pair are seduced into a glamorous, surrealistic world of hedonism, thrills and violence.”
“Like Los Angeles itself, Flesh of the Gods inhabits the liminal realm between fantasy and nightmare,” Panos Cosmatos said in a statement today. “Both propulsive and hypnotic, Flesh will take you on a hot rod joy ride deep into the glittering heart of hell.”
Producer Adam McKay adds, “This director, this writer, these incredible actors, vampires, choice ’80s punk, style and attitude for miles… that’s the film we’re bringing you today. We think it’s wildly commercial and wildly artful. Our ambitions are to make a movie that ripples through popular culture, fashion, music and film. Can you tell how excited I am?”
The project is launching in Cannes with WME Independent, CAA Media Finance and XYZ Films.
