David Bruckner’s ‘The Night House’ Moves from July to August
Another day, another release date change. This time it’s David Bruckner‘s new horror movie The Night House, which Disney’s Searchlight acquired out of Sundance last year.
Originally set for release on July 16, The Night House has been bumped to August 20.
“The film follows a widow (Rebecca Hall) who begins to uncover her recently deceased husband’s disturbing secrets.”
Sarah Goldberg, Evan Jonigkeit, Stacy Martin and Vondie Curtis Hall also star.
Ben Collins & Luke Piotrowski (Super Dark Times) wrote the script.
Previously, David Bruckner has directed The Signal, the “Amateur Night” segment in our V/H/S, the segment “The Accident” in our Southbound, and monster movie The Ritual. Bruckner is also working on our upcoming V/H/S/94, which is coming soon.
Meagan wrote in her review of The Night House that we ran out of Sundance 2020, “The Night House is a standout film… It’s moody and atmospheric, but above all, it’s scary as hell.”
Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”
Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach wrote the script.
Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
