The Original Suzy Bannion Reveals Cameo in ‘Suspiria’ Remake
It’s always fun when stars of the original movie cameo in the remake, isn’t it? It put a huge smile on my face when Ken Foree popped up in the Dawn of the Dead remake, and it doesn’t get much better than Chris Sarandon’s fun cameo in the Fright Night remake. Up next, original Suspiria star Jessica Harper, we can now 100% confirm, will be appearing in the upcoming remake!
Harper, who posted the below photo on her Facebook page over the weekend, noted that she’s in Berlin (or recently was, at least) filming a cameo for Luca Guadagnino’s new take on the classic Dario Argento horror film. IMDb reveals that Harper will be playing a character named Anke, rather than reprising the role of Suzy Bannion. After all, Dakota Johnson is our new Suzy.
Her name, however, is being spelled Susie this time around.
Chloe Grace-Moretz, Tilda Swinton and Mia Goth also star.
In Suspiria:
A young American ballet dancer travels to a prestigious dance academy in Europe, only to discover it is something far more sinister and supernatural. She becomes increasingly terrified after a series of gruesome murders ensue and she slowly unravels the dark history of the academy.
David Kajganich penned the script.
It’s now been five years since the release of sequel Happy Death Day 2U, Christopher Landon’s sequel to the Groundhog Day-style slasher movie from 2017. Both films star Jessica Rothe as final girl Tree Gelbman, and director Christopher Landon had been planning on bringing the character – and the actor – back for a third installment. So… where is it?!
We’ve been talking about a potential Happy Death Day 3 for several years now, with the ball in producer Jason Blum’s court. Happy Death Day 2U scared up $64 million at the worldwide box office, a far cry from the first film’s $125 million. But with a reported production budget of just $9 million, that first sequel was profitable for Blumhouse. So again… where is it?!
Chatting with Screen Geek this week while promoting her new action-thriller Boy Kills World, franchise star Jessica Rothe provided a hopeful update on Happy Death Day 3.
“Well, I can say Chris Landon has the whole thing figured out,” Rothe explains. “We just need to wait for Blumhouse and Universal to get their ducks in a row.
Rothe continues in her comments to Screen Geek, “But my fingers are so crossed. I think Tree [Gelbman] deserves her third and final chapter to bring that incredible character and franchise to a close or a new beginning.”
Back in 2020, Christopher Landon had revealed that the working title for the third installment was Happy Death Day to Us, said to be “different than the other two films.”
In the meantime, Christopher Landon is directing a mysterious thriller titled Drop for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes, along with a werewolf movie titled Big Bad for Lionsgate.
