Johnny Knoxville (Jackass) is set to star in the new thriller Night Sessions from Vienna-based Pont Pictures, slated to film in Serbia this year, reports Variety.
Knoxville is toplining the psychological thriller as a charismatic U.S. psychiatrist living in exile in Berlin, where he hosts a late-night radio show. A rock-star therapist haunted by his past, Dr. Rick Brennan helps lonely and broken callers with their problems on his daily radio show, until his life is upended by a mysterious caller who accuses him of a horrendous crime, leading to a deadly cat-and-mouse game between the two.
Night Sessions is directed by Austrian filmmaker Gregor Schmidinger, who made a critical splash with his 2019 debut feature “Nevrland.”
It is based on a script by American writer Christopher Beachum that Pont Pictures’ Philipp Mair Vargas came across on the Black List database of unproduced screenplays.
Pont Pictures is also producing Tunnel Vision, a supernatural thriller from American director Justin P. Lange, whose credits include the 2021 horror drama The Seventh Day, starring Guy Pearce and Stephen Lang, and 2022’s Blumhouse Television and MGM+ pic The Visitor, starring Finn Jones and Jessica McNamee.
