M. Night Shyamalan might be one of the most divisive directors working today, but even his less well-received movies tend to do very well at the box office, and his most recent film, Old, ended up taking in over $90 million worldwide (not a bad haul when budget and Pandemic Era BO factor in).
We recently learned that Shyamalan's next project will be titled Knock at the Cabin, and Deadline reports that Dave Bautista (Guardians of the Galaxy, Dune) has signed on to star.
Details on his role - and the plot of the movie itself - are few and far between. In fact, all we really know is that Knock at the Cabin will be a thriller. The title would seem to hint at some horror elements, but that remains to be seen.
Shyamalan is set to write and direct, and will also produce with Ashwin Rajan under the filmmaker’s Blinding Edge Pictures banner alongside Marc Bienstock and Steven Schneider.
Bautista has had a very busy few years, and shows no signs of slowing down with roles booked in the likes of GOTG Vol. 3, Knives Out 2, and Dune: Part 2.
Knock at the Cabin is set to hit theaters on February 3, 2023. You can check out a (very) vague teaser below.
