Here’s a fun fluff piece for fans of M. Night Shyamalan, whose entire career is stuffed with genre goodies from The Sixth Sense to the more recent Old.
With Shyamalan returning to the producer’s chair for the third season of the Apple TV+ thriller “Servant”, the filmmaker spoke with WSJ about everything under the sun, including his surprising reason for reading Stephen King.
“[I read Stephen King because] of his ability to put characters in supernatural settings and still come across as grounded in reality,” Shyamalan reveals to the mag, further adding: “I don’t know if I read him because he’s scary.”
He also shared that he has posters up in his office for The Exorcist and Jaws. However, one of them is his all-time favorite:
“The Exorcist, for me, is the mother of all scary movies,” exclaims Shyamalan.
Shyamalan’s next is officially titled Knock at the Cabin, which Universal Pictures will release in theaters on February 3, 2023. In a previous social post this past summer, the director teased the project is “super tight” and “under 100 pages.” Actor Dave Bautista (Army of the Dead, Dune) will star.
He will also be producing a thriller titled The Vanishings At Caddo Lake.
