Night Shyamalan has taken up his project, “Knock at the Cabin.” The writer-director has picked up a mystery movie, which will be making its release in 2023. And, similarly, as he keeps his lips sealed about the various details, nothing much is known about the upcoming mystery flick. While it was previously untitled, it recently got its present title and will proceed with the production under the Universal Pictures banner.
It will be altogether the 15th feature by Shyamalan. Here are critical insights to keep up with if you are excited about “Knock at the Cabin.”
When will Knock at the Cabin Release?
The thriller movie, to be produced under the partnership between Shyamalan and Universal, will be getting its theatrical release in 2023. It will drop in cinema halls on February 3, 2023. The earlier release date planned for the movie was February 17, 2023. But now it has been shifted to two weeks earlier. Apart from the title and release date of the movie, every other detail has been kept under wraps.
What are the Plot Details of Knock at the Cabin?
Considering that no insights are available about the plot or characters, one can at the moment just speculate what the movie can be about. The hint definitely lies in the title. One can assume that it consists of a cabin-like structure in the plot. But, predicting further would be like shooting aimless arrows. Shyamalan and Universal Pictures’ two-movie deal includes ‘Knock as the Cabin’ as its second installation, besides the first movie “Old.”
Is the Trailer Available?
As of now, no trailer for the movie. Shyamalan has not dropped any footage for ‘Knock at the Cabin’ yet. The movie had entered into development status in September 2019, and in October 2021, it entered the pre-production status. In August 2019, Shyamalan also teased a script for the thriller, without any inside details though. He called it the next one, which is on its third draft and is under a total of 100 pages, according to Shyamalan in his tweet.
Further Details About the Movie
Peter Cramer, who serves as the President of Universal Pictures, calls Shyamalan a master filmmaker at the peak of his working capabilities, which gives them the honor to collaborate with him. Shyamalan is self-financing the movie and will be receiving a larger profit check, and it goes successfully. Universal Pictures and Shyamalan had started a collaboration back in 2015 with his movie The Visit.
It then included other movies, namely Split, Glass, and the recent release, Old. After the release of The Visit, Shyamalan revealed that he is enjoying the minimal approach and the bigger tonal risk in the movies. The notes in the thriller flicks consist of dark humor and absurdity and are still grounded. He continued this trend in his film, Old, which may possibly continue into ‘Knock at the Cabin’ too.
Shyamalan, in an interview, had revealed he felt strongly about this movie. He has ideas, and he wants to commit two years of writing and to direct them and bring them to what he desires them to be. Knock at the Cabin will get its theatrical release on February 3, 2023.
