Noah Hawley’s mainly known for successful TV series such as Legion, Fargo, and now Alien: Earth. But his drab feature film debut, Lucy in the Sky, came and went without making a blip, and efforts for him to direct a Star Trek feature failed. But Hawley is giving movies another shot, as THR reports he’ll direct Terrified, a remake of the 2017 Argentine supernatural horror.
Hawley will direct and produce Terrified, working alongside the original film’s director, Demián Rugna. However, Hawley’s film will be a reimagining of the story, which follows a police officer and a group of paranormal researchers investigating supernatural events in a Buenos Aires neighborhood.
Rugna is probably best known to U.S. audiences for 2023’s When Evil Lurks, which Khalil reviewed and loved.
So, an unexpected move from Hawley as he works to establish himself in the world of cinema. It does make me wonder on th status of Nowhere Fast, the Texas crime thriller he’s developing that will star Chris Pine. Perhaps that one is moving along slowly and is still a long way off.
