Eileen is based on Ottessa Moshfegh’s book of the same name, and she adapted it for the big screen alongside her husband Luke Goebel. They’re also producing this project alongside Anthony Bregman, Stefanie Azpiazu, Peter Cron, and its director William Oldroyd.

According to its official synopsis, Eileen is set during a bitter 1964 Massachusetts winter and it centers on a young secretary Eileen who becomes enchanted by the glamorous new counselor Rebecca at the prison where she works. Their budding friendship takes a twisted turn when Rebecca reveals a dark secret – throwing Eileen onto a sinister path.

In addition to McKenzie and Hathaway, the cast of Eileen also includes Shea Whigham, Siobhan Fallon Hogan, Owen Teague, Jefferson White, Tonye Patano, and Marin Ireland.

Eileen had its world premiere at the 2023 Sundance Film Festival back in January, where it was met with overwhelmingly positive reviews. Neon will release it in selected theatres in the United States on December 1, before expanding wide one week later.

Fackham Hall will center on a new porter, played by Hero Fiennes Tiffin (The Woman King), who starts an unlikely relationship with the youngest daughter of a prominent British family (Jojo Rabbit’s McKenzie). Waterston will join them as Lady Davenport, whose family is trying to overcome the disastrous wedding of her eldest daughter (Emma Laird).

Fackham Hall marks the screenwriting feature debut of the famous British comedian and TV host Jimmy Carr, who jokingly said he mashed two most popular genres in the UK into one movie because he didn’t have time to write two. Jim O’Hanlon will be in charge of directing this project, and he agreed to jump on board after reading Carr’s brilliant script.

“Fackham Hall is that rarest of rare hen’s teeth – a genuinely funny, fiendishly clever period comedy which even on the page makes you snort your tea out of several orifices at once, whilst still making you care hugely for the young couple at the center of all the madness,” he said in a statement.

Self-Portrait will center on a grieving photographer Lu Rile (McKenzie) who forms a strong bond with an accomplished painter Katherine (Kravitz) after moving to a run-down artists’ warehouse in 1990s Brooklyn.

They find themselves haunted by a demonic force hellbent on shaking their realities after Lu unknowingly captures Katherine’s tragic loss in one of her self-portraits, generating a striking but unsettling image that changes the course of their intensifying relationship.

This film draws inspiration from Rachel Lyon’s debut novel Self-Portrait with Boy, and it will start filming later this year. Mona Fastvold (The World To Come) co-wrote the script for this project alongside Brady Corbet (Vox Lux), and she’s coming on board as a director.

Kravitz most recently played Catwoman in The Batman last year, and she decided to step behind the camera after this project. She’s expected to make her feature directorial debut P—y Island starring Channing Tatum later this year.

As for McKenzie, her star has been on the rise since she got her big break with Leave No Trace, and she’ll next appear in Eileen alongside Anne Hathaway.

Shyamalan is hard at work on his forthcoming project, and we finally know who’s set to comprise the main cast.

Variety reports that the filmmaker is in negotiations with Eliza Scanlen, Thomasin McKenzie, Aaron Pierre, Alex Wolff, and Vicky Krieps to star in the top-secret project. 

Shyamalan will write, produce and direct the untitled film. He’s also financing the movie himself, like he did with The Visit, Split, and Glass. Universal will release the feature but it currently remains without release date due to the release date scheduling changes following the Coronavirus pandemic. 

For his latest project, Shyamalan executive produced Servant, a horror fiction series for Apple TV+.
