Disaster Film ‘The Quake’ Coming from Creators of ‘The Wave’

Published

on

Touted as the very first disaster film to hit Norway, last year’s Roar Uthaug-directed The Wave excelled by being so very anti-Hollywood. Rather than embracing the “disaster porn” aesthetic of films like San Andreas, The Wave was wonderfully restrained; the effects took a back seat to the human emotion, making it one of the best disaster movies to come along in recent years.

From the producers of The Wave next comes The Quake.

Screen Daily reports today that the $6.4m project, sort of a spiritual follow-up to The Wave, is inspired by a 1904 earthquake in Oslo. It’s set to begin shooting this coming Autumn with John Andreas Andersen in the director’s chair, and TrustNordisk has already pre-sold it to German-speaking territories (SquareOne),  Latin America (California), China (DD Dream), Hong Kong (Sundream), Taiwan (Moviecloud), Middle East (Gulf) and South Korea (AtNine).

The Quake is set to be released in Norway on Aug 30, 2018.

Saleka Shyamalan stars in the upcoming thriller as fictional pop star Lady Raven, and today brings us a first-listen preview of the song “Release” by Saleka as Lady Raven.

Give it a listen right here and find the new official poster for Trap down below.

M. Night Shyamalan’s new thriller for Warner Bros. – the sixteenth movie in his Oscar-nominated career thus far – is headed to movie theaters nationwide on August 9, 2024.

In the upcoming thriller starring Josh Hartnett, “A father and teen daughter attend a pop concert, where they realize they’re at the center of a dark and sinister event.”

As the official trailer for Trap reveals, the pop concert is actually an elaborate trap designed to catch The Butcher, a sadistic serial killer who has been evading authorities.

Hartnett had recently described the mysterious film as “very bizarre” and “very dark.”

According to IMDb, the cast for Trap also includes Hayley Mills, Marnie McPhail, Vanessa Smythe, Saleka Shyamalan, Scott Ian MacDougall, Kristi Woods, and Cali Lorella.

Trap is the first film Shyamalan has made under his new deal with Warner Bros., which has been described as a “multi-year first-look directing and producing agreement.”
