The oh so brilliant filmmaker Guillermo del Toro is hard at work on his latest film, Nightmare Alley which has just been given a release date by Searchlight Pictures.
The film, already being eyed for the 2021 Oscars, centers on “An ambitious young carny (Cooper) with a talent for manipulating people with a few well-chosen words hooks up with a female psychiatrist (Blanchett) who is even more dangerous than he is.”
Nightmare Alley is an adaptation of William Lindsay Gresham’s 1946 novel, which spawned a feature film the following year. Del Toro penned the new script along with Kim Morgan which is being described as a new twist on the story.
Take a trip down Nightmare Alley on December 3, 2021. But first, take a look at the first images from the set featuring Rooney Mara and Cate Blanchett, among others.
