M. Night Shyamalan’s Knock at the Cabin Pic Adds Rupert Grint & Nikki Amuka-Bird

According to Deadline, Harry Potter vet Rupert Grint and Avenue 5 star Nikki Amuka-Bird have found their next project with M. Night Shymalan as they officially signed on to the filmmaker’s next horror thriller Knock at the Cabin. The film is set to hit theaters on February 3, 2023,

Grint is currently starring in the third and final season of Apple TV+ series Servant, which is executive produced and showrun by Shyamalan. Meanwhile, Amuka-Bird recently starred in Universal Pictures’ psychological thriller Old.

Knock at the Cabin will be written and directed by M. Night Shyamalan, who most recently directed Universal’s thriller drama Old, which earned a worldwide gross of over $90 million. The new project will be produced by Shyamalan and Ashwin Rajan through their Blinding Edge Pictures banner along with Marc Bienstock, and Steven Schneider.

The project will be led by Dave Bautista, who is currently in production for James Gunn’s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. He will next be seen in other high-profile films such as Thor: Love and Thunder, Knives Out 2, and Dune: Part Two.

Knock at the Cabin marks the latest collaboration between Shyamalan and the studio, who have previously worked on Glass, Split, and The Visit. Shyamalan’s high-concept content has consistently captured the attention of audiences around the world for nearly two decades, having amassed more than $3.3 billion worldwide. However, not all of his films had received positive feedback as some of his works earned negative reviews from critics and audiences alike including 2006’s Lady in the Water, 2013’s The Happening, 2010’s The Last Airbender, and 2013’s After Earth.
