M. Night Shyamalan’s Next Thriller Film Knock at the Cabin Begins Filming

Oscar nominee M. Night Shyamalan took to Twitter to announce that production on his next horror thriller film Knock at the Cabin has officially begun.

Further details about its plot and characters are still being kept under wraps, but it will be led by Dune star Dave Bautista.

The film is set to hit theaters on February 3, 2023, currently pitting it against no direct competition. However, it will be debuting in the same month as another high-profile film in the form of Marvel Studios’ Captain Marvel sequel The Marvels.

Knock at the Cabin is written and being directed by M. Night Shyamalan, who most recently helmed Universal’s thriller drama Old, which earned a worldwide gross of over $90 million. The new project is 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 (Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3), Harry Potter vet Rupert Grint, Avenue 5 star Nikki Amuka-Bird, Jonathan Groff (The Matrix Resurrections), and Ben Aldridge (Fleabag).

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.
