M. Evening Shyamalan is making ready to shoot his new film with Jake Gyllenhaal, and Bridgerton’s Phoebe Dynevor is in talks to hitch him.
Phoebe Dynevor (Bridgerton) is in negotiations to star alongside Jake Gyllenhaal (Street Home) within the subsequent challenge from M. Evening Shyamalan, which is being billed as a supernatural romantic thriller.
We all know little concerning the challenge, besides that it’s based mostly on an authentic story created by Shyamalan and Nicholas Sparks—sure, that Nicholas Sparks. Shyamalan will write the screenplay, and Sparks will write the novel. Each can be based mostly on the identical idea and set of characters however designed for his or her particular person mediums. I’m to see how this one seems.
The director’s final film, Lure, obtained some reasonably divisive opinions. The movie stars Josh Hartnett as a serial killer evading a police blockade whereas attending a live performance together with his daughter. Our personal Tyler Nichols wasn’t a giant fan, though he discovered a couple of parts to take pleasure in. “Despite my negativity in this review, I didn’t outright hate Trap,” Nichols wrote. “The performances from both Hartnett and Pill are worth the price of admission. I could watch those two act in an empty room and be entertained. I’m just sick of Shyamalan creating these great concepts and being so incapable of sticking the landing. For every great moment in Trap, there’s an illogical one that feels like it was written by a teenager. Unless something changes, I think I may be done with Shyamalan in the theater.” You possibly can try the remainder of his evaluation proper right here.
Dynevor was most not too long ago seen starring alongside Rhys Ifans in Inheritance, an espionage thriller directed and co-written by Neil Burger. As soon as once more, Mr. Nichols discovered himself blended on the movie. “I really enjoyed both Phoebe and Rhys here but the story is so simple, it could have been done as a short film,” he wrote. “While the narrative was intriguing at first, the more elements get piled on, the more absurd it gets. While the ending is satisfying on the surface, it feels sloppy once you think of the implications surrounding it. I really appreciated the filmmaking approach but feel it should have been saved for just a scene, versus an entire story. As is, Inheritance feels like a ton of transitional scenes, without the centerpiece to bring it all together.” Make sure to try the full evaluation.
