‘The Invitation’ Director Karyn Kusama and Nicole Kidman Team for ‘Destroyer’

One of last year’s best was director Karyn Kusama‘s The Invitation, a dinner party-set nightmare that kept you guessing the whole way through and culminated in one of the most chilling final moments in the genre’s history. What’s next for Kusama, you ask?

We’ve learned today that Kusama will team with Nicole Kidman on Destroyer, a cop thriller that’s sure to be one film to keep an eye on as a genre fan.

In the LA-set thriller…

“Destroyer follows the moral and existential odyssey of LAPD detective Erin Bell who, as a young cop, was placed undercover with a cult-like gang in the California desert with tragic results. When the leader of that gang re-emerges many years later, she must work her way back through the remaining members and into her own history with them to finally reckon with the demons that destroyed her past.”

The Invitation scribes Phil Hay and Matt Manfredi are writing the script.

Academy Award®Nominee Fred Berger (La La Land) of Automatik is producing alongside Hay and Manfredi.
